The following help determine your projects specifications for assembly and design quotes.

To receive an accurate design quote, please provide the following details regarding…

• Desired RFQ quantity and lead time desired from 1-20 days.
• Bill of Materials with part number and revision
• IPC Class 1, 2, or 3
• PCB GBR data
• Placement data
• Fabrication drawings with material specifications and layer configuration. This should include copper weight, surface finish requirements, overall PCB thickness, solder mask color, silkscreen color and overall PCB dimensions.
• Impedance requirements documents, or stack-up for designs. We can generate these, but will add time to the quote cycle.
• Assembly Drawings for top and bottom sides if applicable.
• All non-populated components should be identified on BOM and assembly drawings.
• Leaded or Lead-Free assembly should be defined.
• Conformal coat or other post processing shall be defined on drawings or other specifications.
• Any additional information regarding the assembly

For partial-kitted assemblies, please provide any relevant details, including…

• Any customer supplied PCB and its current state, whether PCB is in a panel or single up.
• Does PCB to be supplied match the current GBR panel layout?
• Any customer supplied components should be indicated on BOM

• What ECAD tool and version release is required for this project?
• Is schematic completed in ECAD Schematic tool?
• In what ECAD tool is schematic captured?
• Will this be a supplied a Footprint/Schematic library or will TouchPad need to provide?
• Is there a drawing or .dxf file that will be provided for this project?

• Has a board size been established?
• Have creepage and clearance requirements been defined?
• Is a block diagram of the sub-circuit placement, i.e. power supply, microprocessor, etc. available for review?
• Are keep-out areas, mounting holes, tooling holes and hardware requirements defined? If so, has a drawing or .dxf file showing where the areas are been provided?
• Are there height restrictions for parts on the board? If so, has a drawing or .dxf file showing these locations?
• If footprints need to be created, are there supplied datasheets for custom or required parts with enough information to build these components?

• Product requirements documents or specifications (company or IPC)?
• Is this a new board or a revision to an existing board?
• Will the schematic require any custom symbols be built?
• Has a BOM been created in Excel format with part descriptions and MFG part numbers?
• Specify the following, if known:
  – Board material
  – Board thickness
  – Number of layers
  – Copper weight
  – Surface finish
  – Colors for solder mask and silkscreen
  – DFT requirements (Design for testability)
• Are there specific electrical characteristics requirements? If so, are there customer supplied constraints for the design, i.e. controlled impedance, differential pairs, matched lengths/groups, etc?
• Are there any required pcb markings, i.e. part numbers, rev levels, serial numbers, etc.? If so, have they been defined?
