01 / DEFINE & DESIGN
PCB Design
Turn functional requirements into a circuit design with an agreed path to a prototype.
- Requirements and system architecture
- Schematic and component planning
- Layout and manufacturing handoff
FROM FIRST IDEA TO FIRST PROTOTYPE
Good ideas deserve
great engineering.
PCB design that connects your concept to a buildable board. Share your requirements, schematics or existing design. Let’s define the next step together.

THE RIGHT SUPPORT, AT THE RIGHT STAGE
From an idea to a board
you can build.
Choose the starting point that fits your project. We’ll use your brief to confirm what is needed and which files you will receive.
02 / PLACE & ROUTEPCB Layout
Already have a schematic? Bring the components, board outline and routing requirements together.
- Board outline and component placement
- Routing and stack-up requirements
- Fabrication and assembly file preparation
03 / REVIEW & REFINE
Design Review
Share an existing design and the issues you want to resolve before your next revision.
- Requirements and design-file review
- Fabrication and assembly considerations
- A defined list of proposed next steps

What happens after
you send your files?
Your submission starts a conversation. We confirm the scope, schedule and quote before beginning design work.
- 01
Share your brief
Upload existing files and describe your goals, constraints and preferred timeline.
- 02
Align on the scope
Review the requirements together and agree on deliverables, cost and milestones.
- 03
Design & review
Work through the agreed design stages, review progress and resolve open questions.
- 04
Prepare the handoff
Receive the agreed files and discuss prototyping, fabrication or assembly as needed.

BEFORE YOU GET STARTED
A few things
you may want to know.
Not sure what to upload? Start with a short brief and tell us what you already have.
Contact DIYIPCB ↗What files should I provide?
A requirements document, schematic, existing PCB files, board dimensions and a component list are helpful. Include relevant mechanical drawings or reference images. ZIP your CAD files before uploading.
Can I submit a project without finished design files?
Yes. Describe the product’s functions, interfaces, size and power requirements. Files are optional at the first enquiry stage, so you can start with a written brief.
Does submitting the form place a paid order?
No. This is a project review request. Design scope, deliverables, timing and pricing need to be agreed before work starts.
Which EDA software should I select?
Select KiCad, Altium Designer, Other or No preference. Tell us if you need editable source files in a particular format so that it can be included in the agreed scope.
Who can access my uploaded files?
Files submitted here are stored privately and are available to authorized DIYIPCB staff for project review. If you need an NDA, contact us before uploading confidential material.
What happens after I submit?
You will receive an on-screen request reference. Keep this number for follow-up. Our team can review your brief and use the email address you supplied to discuss the next steps.
