This is a major departure from the pre-beta we covered back in September. And if that isn’t enough, the “engine” seems to be the exact same back-end that is used in the full $10,000 Altium Designer as well(with a bit easier to use user interface on top). They’ve thrown in almost everything under the sun a 3D viewer, team project collaboration, EagleCAD and DFX import, integrated Octopart supplier and pricing information, no commercial usage limits, and project sharing. And this isn’t some stripped-down, bare-bones software here. Unlimited board size, and unlimited layers – all free. This week, Altium launched the open public beta for its new Circuit Maker software, and it’s a major change from what we looked at previously. PCB fab houses require this when the order is made.Things are about to get interesting in the world of PCB design software for the open source hardware community.

In your email with these files, you also need to tell me the board dimensions in INCHES (x by y). This README.TXT tells the PCB fab house how to correlate files to layers. OLN (board outline, rename whatever layer used for the board outline to be something.OLN).

GBO - bottom overlay (silk screen) - only needed if you have silk screen on the bottom of your board. You may also want to create a README.TXT in this directory with contents of: The pcbfiles directory will now contain all of the files needed by a PCB house. Also copy whatever layer you used for the outline line layer and give it a file extension of. Also copy the NC Drill/.TXT file (this is the drill file for the holes in your PCB). If you have bottom overlay, then you also need to copy the Gerber/.GBO file.

Make a new directory called pcbfiles, and copy Gerber/ files. After clicking on the Generate button, a compressed zip archive will be created that has two directories named Gerber and NC Drill.
