Simple five-step process from design to delivery
Create your PCB layout using industry-standard design software such as Eagle, KiCad, Altium Designer, or OrCAD. Export Gerber files (RS-274X format), drill files (Excellon format), and include a bill of materials (BOM) if assembly is required. Ensure all layers are properly named and organized.
Upload your design files to our online platform and specify board parameters including dimensions, layer count, material type, copper weight, solder mask color, silkscreen color, and surface finish. Indicate quantity and desired delivery timeline for your printed circuit board prototype.
Receive an instant automated quote based on your specifications. Our engineering team performs a complimentary DFM check and contacts you if any design issues are detected. Review pricing, lead time, and shipping options before confirming your order.
Your approved design enters our production workflow where it undergoes precision fabrication steps including imaging, etching, drilling, plating, and finishing. Multiple quality control inspections ensure your printed circuit board prototype meets all specifications and industry standards.
Your completed PCB prototype ships via your selected carrier with full tracking information. Upon receipt, perform electrical testing and functional validation. Our technical support team remains available to assist with any questions or concerns.

Common questions about printed circuit board prototype services
A printed circuit board prototype is a sample PCB manufactured in small quantities to test design functionality, verify component placement, and validate circuit performance before mass production. This allows engineers to identify and correct issues early in development.
Standard PCB prototype turnaround time ranges from 24 hours to 5 business days, depending on complexity, layer count, and specifications. Express services are available for urgent projects requiring faster delivery.
You need Gerber files (RS-274X format), drill files (Excellon format), and a bill of materials (BOM) if assembly is required. Most manufacturers also accept design files from Eagle, KiCad, Altium, or other PCB design software.
Most PCB prototype services accept orders as small as 1-5 pieces, making it affordable to test designs before committing to larger production runs. This flexibility supports iterative development and rapid prototyping.
PCB prototype costs vary based on size, layers, quantity, and specifications. Simple 2-layer boards can start from $5-20 for small quantities, while complex multilayer boards cost more depending on requirements.
Common PCB prototype materials include FR-4 (various TG ratings), aluminum substrates for LED applications, flexible polyimide for bendable circuits, Rogers high-frequency materials for RF applications, and ceramic substrates for demanding environments.
Yes, many PCB manufacturers offer assembly services including SMT (surface mount technology), through-hole component installation, and mixed technology assembly. You can provide your own components or have them sourced by the manufacturer.
PCB prototypes are available in 1 to 20+ layers. Common options include single-layer, double-layer (2-layer), and multilayer boards (4, 6, 8, or more layers) depending on circuit complexity and routing requirements.
Many PCB prototype manufacturers provide free design for manufacturability (DFM) checks to identify potential issues before production. This ensures your design meets manufacturing standards and helps prevent costly errors.
Common surface finishes include HASL (hot air solder leveling), lead-free HASL, ENIG (electroless nickel immersion gold), OSP (organic solderability preservative), immersion silver, and immersion tin. Each finish offers different benefits for solderability, shelf life, and conductivity.
