PCBA COST ESTIMATE
About this estimate
Upload the design files you have for one PCBA project. The result estimates supported PCB fabrication, component, and assembly costs, and shows where information is missing.
What it estimates
Available costs are grouped into three parts. A missing part is not treated as a zero cost.
PCB fabrication
Board manufacturing based on the PCB data and build details that can be established.
Components
Components that can be identified and priced from the supplied BOM. Items needing review are listed separately.
Assembly
Placement and assembly costs when the available board and component information supports an estimate.
What to prepare
One ZIP, RAR, or TAR archive can contain one or more board designs, including a mixed panel. The upload limit is 100 MB. Supported individual PCB files can also be uploaded.
- PCB dataGerber and drill files, IPC-2581, ODB++, KiCad, EAGLE XML, or supported Altium PCB, Cadence Allegro, and Fusion Electronics board files.
- BOMPart numbers, quantities, and reference designators where available.
- Placement dataPick and Place files for the boards you want assembled.
- Build notesStackup, material, finish, drawings, or other manufacturing requirements.
You can start with an incomplete package. The estimate will cover only what the available files support.
How to read the result
The total reflects the costs included in that result. Check the coverage notes before using it to plan a build.
- Not included means no usable estimate was available for that cost, not that the cost is zero.
- A separate BOM reference may be shown without being added to the project total when its quantity or project relationship cannot be established reliably.
- For multiple boards, fabrication and assembly may be shown by board design while component cost remains at project level.
This is an estimate for planning, not a binding quotation. Project-specific requirements and commercial costs are reviewed when you request a quotation.
How files are handled
Original engineering packages are processed and stored in the Singapore-hosted service environment. They are not sent to analysis or pricing providers; only limited extracted or structured data needed for their tasks may be used. See the Service Privacy Notice for details.
Original packages are scheduled for deletion from active service storage seven days after upload. The Service Terms explain retention of results, backups, and other records.
