MATRIX Array Level: 2
The QUOTE_PCB array allows you to assign quotation pricing for the manufacturing of PCB bareboards. Plus includes the ability for unlimited PCB cost options using percentages and cost values
- Note
- The QUOTE_PCB array calculates PCB bareboard pricing only. It does not yet include Assembly costs (coming soon!), etc.
PCB Unit Pricing
| Description |
| UnitPrice=VALUE | The unit price for a bareboard PCB without any options.
UnitPrice=LAYERCOUNT,BASE_PRICE,PPSI,PREMIUM,MINIMUM_PRICE
LAYERCOUNT is the number of metal layers.
BASE_PRICE is an initial cost that will be added per PCB Unit (regardless of size, etc). (Default: 0.0)
PPSI is the Price Per Square Inch.
PREMIUM is a COST Option which allows you to 'fine-tune' pricing. It allows you to easily adjust prices due to changes in material costs, or other outside factors. (Default: 0)
MINIMUM_PRICE is the minimum amount that you are willing to charge per PCB. For example if a customer has a tiny board size of 1/2" X 1/2" they will at very least pay the minimum charge. Also helpful for maintaining minimum prices on large volume order. (Default: 0.0)
- Note
- PCB bareboard unit prices are calculated using the following basic formula:
UnitPrice = BASE_PRICE + (PCB_AREA * PPSI) or if minimum is greater use MINIMUM_PRICE
Examples:
Description: Quote Unit Price for 2 Layer PCB, $2 Per Square Inch, with $2 minimum charge (assuming USD currency)
UnitPrice=2,0.0,2.0,0,2.0
Description: Quote Price for 8 Layer PCB, with $125 minimum charge, $12 Per Square Inch, and additional premium factor +20% (assuming USD currency)
UnitPrice=8,0.0,12,+20%,125.0

- Note
- For precise quotations use QuoteOneDelivery and QuoteOneQuantity. This will allow QUOTE_PCB array to generate a single quotation with Total price including shipping and taxes. QUOTE_PCB will generate an array of prices based off DeliveryFactor and Quantity available combinations.
-
Only include the layer counts for PCB's that you can manufacturer. For example if you do not manufacturer 16 Layer PCB's, please do not include a UnitPrice for 16 layer PCBs.
Example 1: This will generate a combination of quoted prices based of available Quantities and Delivery times.
