PCB manufacturing

Overview of producing manufacturing data for a printed circuit board using the CAM processor in the PCB Editor.


Manufacturing data is generated by the CAM Processor using the extended Gerber RS-274X vector format by default. It also supports GERBER X2 for plotting and the Excellon format for drill data. These are the common formats used by board manufacturers.

Electronics includes a predefined set of CAM templates (job files) for use with boards that have a common layer setup. The CAM Processor automatically selects a CAM template that fits the current board, but you can create custom job files and load them when appropriate.
