Board Sizes 1" x 1" minimum to 4" x 6" maximum (trimmed to your size)

How to order:

	Send an electronic file of your circuit board design(s) to: info@circuitboardstogo.com If multiple files are sent identify these as PCB 1, PCB 2...
	Print and measure each design that you are submitting
	Select your board to be drilled or DIY (drill it yourself)
	Select the board size (square inches) required for your circuit from the drop down menu
	Purchase additional holes if necessary
	Select your image to be mirrored or not
	Enter the actual length and width measurements of the outline (or outer most print area) of your design (mm or inch)

We accept a wide variety of actual size image files: see list

We also accept software files (.brd) created by Eagle - CadSoft Computer, Inc. They offer a free version of their PCB software for students and non-profit hobbyists!

*Note* The aqua color traces are because of our standard anti-oxidant.
This coating protects the copper while still allowing direct soldering.

Mirror or Not? Some customers have a bottom layer image designed for through hole parts. This type of image should be mirrored (reversed) on to the copper surface of the PCB. Open your PCB image file. If the design is exactly the way you want the surface (copper side) of your PCB to look then you do Not want it mirrored.

Please select Mirror or Do Not Mirror for each PCB design that you are submitting with this order:

Actual Size? To avoid actual size errors please print and measure each PCB design that you are submitting with this order and type in the length and width in inch fractions or millimeters: (example 1.25" x 2.75")

Q&A

Q. How long will it take to get my board?
A. Your board is normally made and shipped out within 2 or 3 days from USA zip code 97439.

Q. How do I know if my circuit board art work is to scale?
A. You can open and print your file while checking that the size/scale is set to 100%. When you have the printed copy set a part on it and see that it lines up. Need more help? Email technical assistance info@circuitboardstogo.com

Q. Will you make any board at the listed prices.
A. Yes, within reason. Obviously a 1"x2" circuit requiring 32 different size holes would not be made for $4.80. Minimum trace and space tolerance is .015" We reserve the right to reject any order by providing a complete refund.

Q. What is the detail quality like.
A. Your board will be a copy of the quality of the image you provide, or basically a laser print of what you send.

Q. What kind of text and references can be part of my art work?
A. Anything you like (see example). Just keep in mind that all of this is in copper, so be sure to separate text from your component traces.

Q. What kind of circuit board options do you offer?
A. Single sided circuit boards only. Traces, text and labels are all in copper. No Solder masks. No silk screening. Boards can be purchased drilled or drill it yourself (DIY).

Q. What material is used for these circuit boards.
A. We use 1 oz. copper clad phenolic resin boards that are 1.6mm thick.

Q. What size holes can I have drilled?
A. Typically a .04" drill bit will suffice for most popular parts. Bit changes are often made for obvious reasons as dictated by your artwork, for example to create fastener holes. Custom cost holes are over .25" up to 2".

Q. Can I select a DIY PCB and then just buy 25 holes for $1.00?
A. Yes. If you have a design with a low hole count you can save money that way.

Q. I need my PCB cut to a non-rectangular outline, can you do that?
A. Yes, Generally we can custom cut PCBs. Email info@circuitboardstogo.com

Q. Will you design and make me a circuit board from my schematic?
A. It depends on how complex the circuit is. Email info@circuitboardstogo.com

Q. Is my design safe from being ripped off and sold?
A. Yes. Your art work is treated as original work with copyright protection and there is no need to disclose the function of your circuit or your parts list.

Q. Do you create circuits from a design that has been ripped off without the permission of the owner or designer?
A. No. But there are thousands of public designs available and most hobbyist are willing to share what they create. Ask for permission.

Q. Do you guarantee that my board will work?
A. No. The circuit design is your responsibility. It's a good idea to test your circuit on a bread board first. If there is an obvious problem regarding scale or image quality you will be notified prior to production.
