I had a qoute from pcbcart for a 4 layer board of our size with gold finish and 240 connection pinns for the DIMM ind 1.2 mm thikness resulting in 18 euro per board for a quatity of 10 boards.

I would like to avoid manufayturing the boards in germany. The liddle to no increase in quality often doesn't justify the price over the asian manufacturers in my experience.

@Olaf.Mandel:

Wich size of the board did you set for your design and your quote ?

I tought of increasing the heith of the daughterboard above standart DIMM size to 50 maybe 60mm to get more space.

I also think we will have to populate the backside with capacitors anyway.The Xilinx docu tells to put the smallest capacitors right behind the Vint and Vcc vias.
So having to additional layers for ground and signal would be a plus.

Edit: just to have a frame of capabilitys we are talking about here. The restictions published by pcbcart:

Surface finish      HASL,Ni/Au,OSP
Soldermask      LPI, different colors
Board Dimension      600x700mm
Min Hole Diameter      8mil (0.2mm)
Min line width      8mil (0.2mm)
Min line spacing      8mil (0.2mm)
Min SMT pitch       16mil (0.4mm)
Min. Annular Ring      .008" (0.2mm)
Aspect Ratio      5:1
Surface/hole plating      ave. 25um min. 20um
Tolerance:
Hole Tolerance (PTH) .002" (0.05mm)
Hole Tolerance (NPTH) .003" (0.075mm)
SM Tolerance (LPI)      .003" (0.075mm)
Dimension      .004" (0.1mm)

I've had very good experiences with PCBCart, excellent choice
