Premium PCB Service
1. What is the mean by "Premium"?
The Premium PCB Service can meet more than 95% customer’s requirements, for some guys, especially makers/startups who have experience in hardware developing and electronics projects that need many special requirements, they will need more reliable & advanced PCB services, such as multiple layers more than 4, FPC (for example: FPC With stiffener, Rigid-Flex PCB, Multilayer FPC), Immersion silver(AG) finished, Flash gold/gold finger, Epoxy Via Plug, BGA or pad less than 0.3mm, a width of wire less than 4 mils, drill holes less than 0.3mm, insulated Metal Substrate, HDI, High-frequency Rogers, Castellation Plating, etc... That’s why Makerfabs provides this "Premium PCB Service".
2. What’s the main upgrade compared to the common PCB services?
This “Premium PCB” service is based on “One-by-One Quotation”, so we will be able to meet your personal requirements. Compared to the common PCB service, the main upgrade is:
• Support More Kinds Of PCB: FPC/ Rigid-flex PCB is available now at Makerfabs;
• More Professional PCB Specifications: PCB Multilayers 1~28; Blind holes; Copper thickness up to 3oz; Thinner/Thicker PCB thickness 0.2mm~6mm;
• More Reliable Quality: Sharper silkscreen; 100% E-test + 100% visual check; More color for PCB(Include Matte Black, Matte green and purple); Minimum PCB track/ Space up to 3 mils;
For FR-4 PCB, please refer to the below detail specs& comparison with common PCB service:
