hi,
I need to calculate impedance for some of my route on the pcb.
I understand there is not simple calculator in the program so I need the layer thickness.
Someone know where can I see or control the layer thickness?
Hi, there is no layer thickness setting in the EDA as far as I know, but you'd need to see what you PCB manufacturer can offer and use that for your calculations.
If you are going to use JLCPCB, here are their capabilities:

4/6 layer impedance info:

And a calculation tool:

If you are going to use other manufacturers, you need to find that out from them.
Another great and free tool for a lot of PCB design is Saturn PCB Design Toolkit:
[https://saturnpcb.com/saturn-pcb-toolkit/](https://saturnpcb.com/saturn-pcb-toolkit/)
It's free but you need to give them your email to download it.
I can recommend this:
[http://mdtlc.sourceforge.net/](http://mdtlc.sourceforge.net/)<br>

It is a Free and Open Source Software 2D field solver that gives results comparable to commercial field solvers.
