Manufacturing Files for PCBWay

Required Files for PCB + Assembly Order

1. Gerber Files (from KiCad)

Export from KiCad PCB editor: File → Fabrication Outputs → Gerbers

Required layers:

  • SN-L00-F_Cu.gbr - Front copper
  • SN-L00-B_Cu.gbr - Back copper
  • SN-L00-F_SilkS.gbr - Front silkscreen
  • SN-L00-B_SilkS.gbr - Back silkscreen
  • SN-L00-F_Mask.gbr - Front soldermask
  • SN-L00-B_Mask.gbr - Back soldermask
  • SN-L00-Edge_Cuts.gbr - Board outline
  • SN-L00-PTH.drl - Plated through holes
  • SN-L00-NPTH.drl - Non-plated through holes

Settings:

  • Format: Gerber X2 (or RS-274X)
  • Drill format: Excellon
  • Units: mm
  • Coordinate format: 4.6

2. BOM (Bill of Materials)

See BOM_PCBWay.csv - formatted for PCBWay assembly.

3. CPL (Component Placement List)

See CPL_PCBWay.csv - component positions for pick and place.

Export from KiCad: File → Fabrication Outputs → Component Placement

SMD assembly $15-25
LCSC components $20-30
Shipping $15-25
Total $55-90

Prices vary by quantity and shipping speed

Order Checklist

  • Export Gerbers from KiCad
  • Generate drill files
  • Export component placement (CPL)
  • Verify BOM has correct LCSC part numbers
  • Zip Gerbers + drill files
  • Upload to PCBWay
  • Select "PCB Assembly" option
  • Upload BOM and CPL
  • Review part matching
  • Confirm order
