What is Prototype PCB ?

If you need to test whether the circuits of a newly designed PCB are properly connected and whether its dimensions match the product casing, you can simply order a Prototype PCB. In practical business operations, we recommend that you first produce a PCB prototype to validate your design. Only after confirmation that everything is correct should you proceed with prototype assembly.
All we require from you are the PCB design files (Gerber format) and technical specifications (such as layer count, base material, surface finish, etc.), and we can then verify the electrical connectivity, structural compatibility, and manufacturing feasibility of your PCB design. This lays a solid foundation for subsequent assembly processes and constitutes an essential front-end step in the PCB manufacturing workflow.

Multilayer PCB Prototyping

Specializing in high-complexity PCB prototyping, we have achieved stable production capabilities for 4-layer, 6-layer, 8-layer, 10-layer, and higher-count multilayer PCBs.

Special PCB Prototyping

Focused on meeting customized and specialized PCB manufacturing requirements, our service covers a wide range of circuit board types with unique materials and structures.

Why Choose Prototype PCB Service?

Prototype PCB is primarily focused on mitigating risks, controlling costs, and accelerating R&D efficiency. 

PCB design correct?

Whether there are short circuits or open circuits in the traces, the positional accuracy of pads, signal integrity, the rationality of design details, etc.

Reduce R&D costs

First, rule out PCB-specific issues,reduce unnecessary material waste at the source and lower R&D trial-and-error costs.

Verify process

Prototype PCBs help prevent issues such as low yield rates and failure to meet process standards during subsequent mass production.

Match the structure

Verify whether PCB sizes, mounting hole positions, and locating slots match the product housing and components accurately to prevent structural issues after assembly.

Shorten the R&D cycle

First, quickly validate the PCB design, then proceed with component procurement in parallel to ultimately shorten the product’s time to market.

FAQ

  1. Standard lead times: 2-layer (≤10 pcs) in 1-3days, 4-layer in 2-7 days,6,8 layer in 3-10 days,10+layer in 4-15 days.
  2. Expedited service: 2-layer (≤10 pcs) in 24hours, 4-layer in 48 hours,8+layer in 3-5 days.

specialized processes (e.g., impedance control, high-frequency materials) may take up to 48 hours.

Place orders 1-2 days in advance with clear delivery time specifications.

Like any custom product, PCB prototyping doesn’t have a stagnant “I want to buy” price. Common quotations consist of:
Base Cost: Things like type of substrate material—FR-4 vs. a high-frequency material, number of layers (2, 4, 8), thickness, size.
Processing Fees: Basic “base item” processes are cheapest; additional processes are costs on top of basic quotes. Fees for surface treatments such as electroless nickel plating, hot air leveling, organic solder mask, impedance control, blind/buried vias, custom solder mask colors are added to pricing.
Rush Fees: About 20%-50% for 24-hour or 48-hour “get it out the door” service fees.
Prices differ from mfr. to mfr. depending on things like precision of equipment, grades of material, complexities of process, inspection.

PCB prototyping requires: Gerber production files in RS-274X, and Excellon drill files. You may also provide specifications (board material, thickness, surface finish, etc). For SMT assembly you will also need to provide coordinate files and a BOM list.

We offer all kinds of substrates in our PCB prototyping service. The standard FR-4 (TG135/TG150) is arguably the most widespread choice, while metal substrates like aluminum or copper boards are often used for heat dissipation purposes in LED lighting or power modules. Flexible PCBs (FPC) are bendable, allowing the adaptability needed for wearables, foldable screens, or anything with a smaller footprint. Prototyping FR-4 1.6mm is something I would recommend upfront since it will save you basically 30%-50% of materials costs and satisfy most of your testing.
