As you can see, this tool is suitable for most customers who want to get PCBs delivered quickly, and can automatically obtain Gerber file parameters, automatically input the circuit board size, board layer, minimum hole length, and line width. Currently, it only accepts .rar or .zip, the maximum is 40M. As expected, it saves your time for filling in tedious data.

The standard version of the PCB pricing page is more suitable for more complex and more detailed demanding PCB circuit boards. The selected parameters will be more accurate and meet your needs.

You do not have to manually fill in the parameters one by one on the instant quote page.
