Re: gEDA-user: Anybody ever had a board assembled (pick and place)?



If any one needs pointers for a FAB house in the UK, there is a place in
Scotland I've had reasonable success with in the past. They do all the
component buying, and are very competitively priced.

I'm not convinced they use PCB's .xy files when I send them though, as
I've seen them miss components when the silk-screen wasn't clear. I
think they tend to manually program their PnP machines looking at the
BOM and your board, rather than fighting with "n" different PnP formats
different CAD systems might supply.

Best wishes,
