Project-based reverse engineering

Armistead Technologies specializes in reverse engineering and re-engineering printed circuit boards (PCBs). Call us in when you need to:

• Replace an obsolete printed circuit board
• Re-create lost or missing PCB manufacturing files
• Update an existing PCB assembly with new capabilities
• Re-engineer an old PCB design to current standards, using new components

PCB reverse engineering capabilities

• Up to 8 layers
• No limit on nodes or pads
• No limit on board size
• No limit on components (through hole, surface mount, or mixed)
• Component sides: single or double-sided
• SMT pitch down to 0.35 mm or less depending on board layout

What the PCB reverse engineering service delivers

You get a CD containing all the information and files you need to take your PCB into production:

• Schematic diagrams and ORCAD DSN files, including all on-board point-to-point wiring diagrams
• Bill of materials listing all components.
• Gerber files for the production of the PCB.
• Printable PDF files for all schematics, board component layouts, each separate layer, drill files, solder masks, and dimensions.
• Optional: Individual data sheets on each component where available.
• Optional: A fully functional prototype PCB assembled with all components as-specified for testing and evaluation.
