Best Customized PCB Prototypes to Empower Your Electronic Projects

Overview of PCB Prototypes

PCBONLINE can provide you with any type of prototypes that you may need. Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are also known as prototype circuit boards and printed wire boards (PWBs). PCB is the provider of electrical connection of electronic components. When the components have been assembled, the PCB is called a PCB assembly (PCBA).
PCBs can be classified into many categories: single and double sided PCBs, and complex PCBs such as multilayer PCB, high-density interconnects (HDI) PCB, thick- copper PCB, rigid-flex PCB, etc.

PCB Prototype - Manufacturing and Tech Specs

Quick-Turn PCBs

PCBONLINE provides our client with a guarantee that they will get their PCB prototypes in the originally quoted number of days. Quick-turn PCBs means that the circuit board is manufactured and assembled as quickly as possible - sometimes only in 24-hours! PCBONLINE can provide you with this guarantee while also maintaining excellent product quality.
PCBONLINE provides quick-turn PCB services for all types of circuits boards including, but not limited to the following: single-layer and double-layer PCBs, multilayer constructions, aluminum core PCBs, halogen-free boards, HDI designs, high-frequency PCBs, flexible constructions, rigid-flex boards, heavy copper boards, lead-free PCBs, and many more! You can quickly order all kinds of quick-turn PCBs from us on our quote page!

Gerber Files for Manufacturing

Gerber files are the first step in any PCB fabrication process. When you design a PCB with any piece of software, you will see the copper of the PCB as many different shapes, lines, and sizes. Those graphical representations of the copper need to be converted into data that PCB manufacturers can use to produce a circuit board. This data is stored in what are called Gerber files!

A Gerber file has four main elements which include configuration parameters, aperture settings, XY coordinates, and flash command codes. Each portion of the PCB requires a different Gerber file. This means that each conductor layer, soldermask layer, silkscreen layer, etc. all need to have their own Gerber files.

Gerber data can be modified and generated directly with a text editor, but there are various types of software that can be used to view and guide the Gerber file creation.

PCBONLINE accepts Gerber files in RS-274X and RS-274-D formats as well as the following layout file formats:

• PCB files from PADS

• PCB and .DDB files from PROTEL

• .BRD files from Eagle

• PCB and/or .DDB files from Altium Designer
