LibrePCB

Overview

We support two methods of uploading your LibrePCB project, you can either use the integrated order function or directly import LibrePCB .lppz archive files. Both methods support assembly and electrical testing.

Important Note

We prepare your design files for manufacturing using an automated software pipeline, if you have any questions or want to make remarks, please contact our support before ordering, as we do not read notes included in your project files.

Design Rule Check

Before submitting your design, you should run a Design Rule Check to ensure that your design complies with our manufacturing capabilities. In the new interface, you can find the DRC settings in the Board Setup under Project → Board Setup… → DRC Settings .

New in LibrePCB 2.0.0: It is now possible to import predefined design rules . By clicking the import icon, you can, for example, load the “LibrePCB Fab: Standard” rules, which are already configured for simple PCBs.

We recommend to use our manufacturing capabilities, they can be found here: PCB Design Rules
Run the Design Rule check by navigating to Board → Run Design Rule Check.

Resolve all errors found by the DRC. We can proceed with manufacturing once the tests pass without errors.

LibrePCB Fab (Direct Ordering)

The simplest way to order your design is LibrePCB Fab, simply click the shopping cart icon in the sidebar.

Advantage of LibrePCB Version 2.0.0: The software now automatically checks the ERC and DRC and warns you about outdated messages before you place the order. In the dialog, click Upload Project.

A page will open in your browser displaying a rendering of your PCB. Select AISLER in the manufacturer selection and proceed.

LibrePCB will then send the manufacturing files directly to our site, where you can see a final preview.

You can inspect your design using our board viewer after we processed the manufacturing files.

We give a rendering guarantee that the boards are manufactured as displayed in our viewer. You can read this article if you are unsure how to use our board viewer or if you want to know how the rendering guarantee works.

Upload of .lppz archive files

If you dont want to use LibrePCB Fab you can manually export a .lppz archive file and upload it to our site.

To do this, go to Project → Export .lppz Archive … and save the file.

Go to our upload page: Upload your project

Select the file you just exported, we will automatically process the manufacturing data.
