PCB fabricator recommendations?

[DrBwts]

Hi,

Anyone know any reliable PCB fabricator recommendations? Would be small batch runs mostly for prototypes.

Hi Nic,

The current best places are all China based; I and a few people I know have had good experiences with JLCPCB (https://jlcpcb.com/), but I've also heard good things about PCBWay  (https://www.pcbway.com/)

There is also Aisler (https://aisler.net/) in Germany but I've heard less about them

If you also want assembly, JLC have been really good with that in my experience

Hope this helps,

Gwen

I've also had decent results with https://allpcb.com for small orders (5 pieces) of simple boards. No assembly. Have a friend who uses PCBWay for all his boards.

Defer to Gwen for assembly advice.

I've used PCBWay and JLC with population, both seemed decent and reasonably quick.
