Do you ever use design houses?

1

Hello SnapEDA community!

We're curious how you work with design houses when designing PCBs. We commonly see engineers designing the schematic, and then outsourcing the layout. This seems to be especially true for complex layouts.

Please share with us how you interact with design houses, and if you don't, why not?

Thanks!

What you mentioned above is probably the commonest mode of operation for small companies that can’t keep a full-time layout person busy... Larger companies typically have a full-time PCB designer on staff and do everything internally, at least based on my experience.

I work for a small company and do the layouts for our boards and just send off the Gerber files for board creation. I use PCBway mostly.

I also do other work because we don't do a lot of board layout. Our boards tend to not be very complex either. No RF or the like, just microprocessors and sensors generally.

Buying a new home is not an easy task. High risk of deception about the real condition of the new property. Therefore, we advise you to ensure the reliability and safety of a potential home through the Building Defect Inspection https://www.sydneyprepurchase.com.au/services/building-defect-inspection-special-purpose/ service.
