PCB Design

PCB Design Services

SpecForge affords high-quality PCB services, including PCB layout engineering. We have experience with various PCB CAD systems, but recently we prefer to implement projects in Altium Designer.

During the development of your product, our PCB designers work closely with electrical engineers to ensure that the location of components and their designators correspond to the requirements of the circuit and structural parts of the project. We also cooperate with manufacturers that provide the efficient assembly support and reduce marriage output during production.

If you need help in choosing a PCB vendor, we have relationships with a large number of production houses and can find the best offer to PCBs, leaving you free to focus on the core of your design project.

Information needed to do PCB Layout Design

Short description of the project

Schematic. Design Capture/View, DxDesigner or OrCAD Capture format is preferable. If it is a re-engineering project of an older existing design, do provide older schematics and other information

Bill of materials (part number, manufacture) in text or xls format

Data/Specification sheet for specific components or web URLs for them

PCB type (PCI, mini PCIe or other) or board outline with size. Desired number of layers, material type, board thickness, keep out areas, position of mounting holes and list of components which are fixed. DXF format is preferable

Special custom design rules and request that need to be followed in design. This will include all the design and routing requirements, testability, critical signals, minimum spacing, impedance matching requirements, differential pairs and others

Upon completion of a project, the following items are provided to the client

 Gerber 274X artwork files for all layers required to fabricate and assemble the PC Board

 Drill drawing with title block and all fabrication instructions including materials

 NC drill file

 Assembly drawing with title block in gerber format

 Paste stencil file in gerber format

 Pick and place file

 Netlist for final assembly test

 Finished schematic

 BOM list

 Altium Designer format finished design

 AutoCad DXF formatted assembly drawings
