How does PCB layout designs generate BOM tables?
Shenzhen Grande PCB design department to explain the next PCB layout design BOM table method. BOM (bill of material) file.BOM file can be produced in PCB editor as a table describing the parts (including IC, passive parts and connectors) used on the PCB board, so with the BOM table you know the materials needed to weld a piece of PCB.
How can we generate BOM?
In kicad's PCB editor. click file- > fabrication outputs- > BOM file. to produce an excel document about .CSV.
Click twice to open the. CSV document, which turns out to be very cluttered, mainly because the field delimited characters are mistaken, so this section needs to be manually adjusted again.
Add a new excel document, import [data] into [from text file], then select the newly generated BOM (.CSV) file with a semicolon as the separator.
When you press "next" to complete, this excel file is a clearly marked list of BOM parts, with specification, quantities, and (ref). For use there If you add another column of price, add all the quantity x price, to calculate the BOM cost.
