Lowest price I've found is BasicPCB.com They charge $3 per square
inch for 2 layers with mask and legend. Minimum is three boards of 1
square inch. So you actually can place a $9 order with them. They
are a USA based company.
They accept standard Gerber files. This is very impotent as a few

Very happy with them.

+1 on Sunstone
+1 on Screaming Circuits, who will SMT the board with consigned parts or
even do a full turnkey build. Been happy with them on both accounts.
I don't know how many of these super cheap places will do full electrical
check -- I want it on my personal boards.

Dr. Dave,
That is NOT true ! I use http://www.futurlec.com/PCBService.shtml to
handle the my ExpressPCB actions.
They are over in Asia somewhere and have been quite happy with their
work. They are a bit cheaper than ExpressPCB themselves.
They also will do other PCB programs and Gerber's
Hi
If you are one of those people who feel “cramped” in anything less than 6
layers, the Chinese
are about the only way to go. There are a few houses over there that will do 6
and 8 layer
boards at a “basement affordable” sort of price. Given the way things change

That points out a key difference in the PCB house pricing models:
ExpressPCB and the Advanced Circuits $33 prototype are flat fee up to a
size limit (for Advanced Circuits 4 x 6 inches) while others go by the
square inch -- OSH Park is $5/in2 for three copies of two layer, and
$10/in2 for three
I built my first set of boards with ExpressPCB, but they get expensive quickly
if you want to make something that's not in their special form factor. I use
KICAD and OshPark.com to make my boards (there are other board makers). I just
ordered some boards that are .7" x .63" that cost $8.40 for
Hi Bill:
It's their Mini Board Pro service and you get 3 each 2-layer boards each 3.8 x 2.5" with solder mask (great for SMT) and
silk screen top side labels for $61.

If you get this service some caution is needed regarding the solder mask since it's p
Hi
The bottom line has always been that the outfits in China are the cheaper
source for boards.
That said, right now, Advanced Circuits will sell you a single piece of a
double sided board
for $33. It’s a “full feature” board with solder mask, silk screen, and a 3 day
fab time. I don’t

Sorry if I'm behind the times, just did a new project that required a

Hello Peter,
I found a note on Time-Nuts from you back on November 18, 2014 referencing
the use of "SiLabs5351C" to get 10 MHz from a 15 MHz oscillator. Your
Dropbox links don't work anymore. Would you have any further information
you could share about your use of it? Many thanks.

One has to be very careful with LDOs. As we say in applications,
RTFDS. :-) The output capacitor often needs a finite ESR (effective
series resistance). A too-large ceramic cap WILL make them oscillate.
I have noticed that they are used in some GPSDOs.
