Intro

• PCBs are an integral part of electronic devices.
  When it comes to getting PCBs manufactured, one
  of the considerations that most people look at
  will be the cost. There are several factors that
  could impact the cost of PCBs and help you save
  money.

What Determines the PCB Manufacturing Cost?

• The materials selected for itgold, nickel, lead
  are more expensive.
• Dimensions of the boardthe larger the board, the
  more expensive.
• Quality of the boardwhen a board needs extra
  time, special soldering, or other time-consuming
  processes, the cost increases.

How Can You Save Cost on PCB Manufacturing?

• Use high-quality materials for the PCBs
• Keep the shape of your PCB at a minimum
• Use a standard board shape for your PCB 
• Avoid adding extra layers to your PCB
• Use standard requirements, sizes, and components
• Allow longer lead times to your manufacturer

Outro

• The cost to manufacture them can become
  expensive, especially if you need them quickly
  and in non-standard sizes. To reduce your costs,
  choose a standard board made of quality material,
  reduce the costs of the components, and increase
  the time for the manufacturer to make them. It is
  possible to remain within a budget, and still get
  a top-notch PCB that is built to last.
