PCB Design Services
Bring your circuit requirements, board layout and manufacturing files into one coordinated project. Share your starting point with GlobalWellPCB to define the design work, review stages and deliverables you need.
Plan the complete board design in one place.
Start with a new circuit, an approved schematic or an existing board that needs an update. The project scope connects the electrical, mechanical and production requirements.
Circuit & schematic design
Organize the circuit functions, component references and electrical connections before placement begins.
- Functional blocks, power inputs and interfaces
- Symbols, connectivity and component records
- Review findings and layout handoff notes
PCB layout & routing
Turn the reviewed schematic into a board layout that fits the product and its manufacturing requirements.
- Board outline, stackup and mechanical constraints
- Component placement, footprints and keepouts
- Routing, reference planes and critical nets
Design review & release
Resolve rule-check findings and manufacturing questions before approving the release package.
- Design rules and accepted exceptions
- Fabrication, assembly and test-access review
- Revision control and production file preparation
Choose the next step for your project.
Tell us what is already available and what needs to change. We can then define the work and review milestones for that revision.
A new board concept
Share the required functions, power inputs, interfaces and mechanical envelope so the circuit and layout scope can be assessed.
An approved schematic
Provide the schematic, BOM and board constraints to begin placement, routing and manufacturing preparation.
An existing design update
Send the editable source, matching files and your change list. Identify substitutions, circuit updates and mechanical changes.
A layout ready for review
Submit the current design rules, fabrication files and known issues to define the review and release requirements.
Review the design at each release stage.
Clear inputs and customer approvals keep the schematic, placement, routing and output files on the same revision.
Define the scope
Review the available files, required work, source formats and project constraints.
Review the circuit
Confirm connectivity, component records and questions that affect the board design.
Plan & route
Review the stackup and placement before completing the agreed routing work.
Resolve findings
Address design-rule, fabrication and assembly questions, then approve changes.
Release the files
Confirm the final revision and the fabrication and assembly outputs you require.
Start with your files. Agree the output package.
Send the information you already have and identify the revision. Required source formats and deliverables are confirmed when the work is scoped.
What to send
Circuit and component data
Functional requirements, block diagram or schematic, netlist, BOM, relevant datasheets and available libraries.
Mechanical definition
Board outline, dimensions, mounting holes, connector locations, keepouts and enclosure constraints.
Electrical and build requirements
Power requirements, stackup preference, critical nets, impedance targets, intended quantities and assembly or test needs.
Existing project source
Editable design files, the CAD tool and version, current manufacturing outputs and the changes or concerns to review.
What to request
Schematic and PCB source
Agreed editable source formats and readable schematic drawings for your team.
Fabrication package
Gerber or another agreed CAM format, drill files, board outline, stackup and fabrication drawing.
Assembly package
A revision-aligned BOM, placement data and assembly drawings when assembly is included in the scope.
Review and release record
Open questions, resolved findings, approved exceptions and revision notes.
Connect design decisions to the intended build.
Material, stackup, hole structure, copper, spacing and assembly constraints should be reviewed together before production files are released.
Fabrication requirements
Confirm the material, finished construction, drill definitions, surface finish and controlled-impedance requirements for the actual board.
Assembly and test access
Coordinate component footprints, polarity, spacing, placement outputs and the test-access requirements for your assembly plan.
Approval before release
Keep the design source and output files aligned with the approved revision. Product performance verification remains part of your development plan.
Before you send your design files.
Include the questions that matter to your project so they can be considered when the scope and deliverables are agreed.
Can you start with a concept or block diagram?
A concept or block diagram can be a starting point for scope review. Include the required functions, power inputs, interfaces and mechanical constraints so the detailed work can be assessed.
Can you update an existing schematic or layout?
Send the editable source, matching schematic and board files, the current revision and your change list. Include any known circuit, fabrication or assembly concerns.
Which CAD tools and source formats can be used?
Tell us the CAD tool, version and library requirements your team uses. File compatibility and the editable output format are confirmed before the work begins.
Can I specify controlled impedance or critical routing?
Yes. Identify the critical nets, impedance targets, length requirements and proposed stackup where available. The routing requirements need confirmation for the actual board construction.
Will I receive fabrication and assembly files?
Agree the required outputs when the project is scoped. The package may include fabrication files, drill data, drawings, a BOM and placement data, according to the work and build requirements.
Does a design review confirm product performance?
Design-rule and manufacturing reviews address the checks in the agreed scope. Circuit function, signal performance, firmware and product compliance still need the appropriate engineering verification and product testing.
What do you need to design, update or review?
Share your starting files, required changes and intended build. Define the design scope and release package with GlobalWellPCB.
