# 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`
|
||
|
||
