https://circuithub.com/ is close to having you covered on the library + manufacturing side. We're just missing symbol/footprint export (on the way). Disclosure I am a co-founder of CircuitHub.

Thanks, we started this due to the enormous amount of 'grunt' work involved in getting hardware into production. The essence is this; You as a designer probably have a pretty loose spec for a 3.3V regulator, why not just have the

Andrew, co-founder @ https://circuithub.com here. Thanks for the support. I agree completely, really simple stuff is 'quite' well catered for already. Ultimately if your board is really basic and you only need one or t

Can you mention the company? We're interested in using Haskell and I'm looking for reference experiences, particularly use in startups.

Thanks for checking us out. 1. We should select the file with the most recent modified date, something went wrong here, i'll look into it. 2. On the way, many people have requested this. 3. You wont get a quote if we cant build it, but

We dont support consignment of exotic components via the web interface yet but we can handle that via email. Likewise with mechanical assembly, test etc. We're actually learning what different fields mean as people upload projects. We&

The super high end board spec's will have delayed quoting for now (probably an hour or two). But each time we quote we learn from it, over time all specs will be instant.

oh btw we account for how different parameters effect lead time. You'll for instance see if you simplify your design you might get a quicker lead time.

Most of the parameters are contained in the EDA files, so we extract track/gap, pcb height, via config etc. This is pretty cool as you can make sure your design file is the master for all this info. Unfortunately there are a few things

The trouble here was sourcing of the ATMEGA16U2-MU part. If you check back now you'll see we suggested the ATmega32U2 as a substitute. Now that we've learnt the substitute it will happen automatically for all other projects in fut

Hi Emily. Traditional manufacturing is death by a thousand cuts. Generally this manifests as increased costs and time to get into production. Our aim is to smooth as many of these problems out as we can. Actually we're thinking about a

btsync is an interesting option. We are thinking about a GitHub link too so it would track your GitHub project. Our pricing is high around some edge cases right now (low volumes and simple boards). That's going to get a lot better over
