However, if your software can only generate standard format, please do not forget to supply separate aperture list/report file to the manufacturer. Standard gerber format is almost obsolete these days. There are two major generations of Gerber format: RS274-X (extended gerber) and RS274-D (standard gerber). This is the most common and easily acceptable fabrication output format by every PCB manufacturer in the world. Here is list of common output formats: 1. If your software cannot export fabrication output in commonly acceptable formats, you will stuck with only few PCB manufactures and end up paying high cost of manufacturing. Therefore, it is extremely important to know various possible fabrication output formats before you chose PCB design software. You will be required to export fabrication output from your design files in a specific format. QualiEco do not accept direct design files from any software except Altium. In most cases, PCB manufacturer will not accept your PCB design file directly (e.g. * There are many free and commercial softwares available in the market but we have included only few that are widely used among designers. (EAGLE light edition is free for limited usage mainly for hobbyist) Few softwares restrict you to manufacture PCB from their own manufacturing facilities by not allowing to export output in commonly acceptable formats.Ĭommercial PCB design softwares* Name of the software.Please check whether the software works on your operating system.
