Seeed Fusion Sponsors Makers with New $1 PCB Manufacturing Offer
August 23, 2018 | Seeed FusionEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Seeed Studio's Fusion service has been providing Chinese electronics manufacturing services to customers worldwide for over ten years. With foundations in the maker community, Seeed understands the movement's needs well and is devoted to supporting their projects.
This time, Fusion is giving away a new package designed for makers. At just $1, customers can get three pieces of up to two-layer PCBs within 100x100mm with a choice of colors and thicknesses. The quality is exactly the same and, since the quantity is lower, shipping prices are cheaper.
This unique package, available only at Seeed Fusion, is ideal for makers who often only need a few pieces compared to the typical 10 or 5 pieces, or for individuals who just want to try out the service.
Seeed Fusion provides hardware manufacturing services including PCB fabrication, PCB assembly, PCB layout, 3D printing, CNC milling and more. As the star service, Seeed Fusion's PCB service caters for boards from 3 to 8000 pieces, 1 to 30 layers, 1oz to 6oz copper weights and various materials and advanced features, all at competitive prices. Get an instant quote online from the website directly with as low as two days production time.
Seeed Fusion's PCB assembly service covers PCB manufacture, in-house assembly and parts procurement in one package. The service features an online BOM reader and calculator that can provide the full quote in seconds. Components can be procured from major distributors such as DigiKey and Mouser, or customers can select from 800 locally sourced parts from Seeed's open parts library (OPL). These parts are cheaper or completely free with PCBA orders and can reduce the total lead time to 15 business days from order confirmation, compared to 25 days if parts are sourced externally.
Seeed's Fusion service prides in being close to its customers and listening to their needs to effectively improve the service. This promotion is yet another example of Seeed Fusion giving customers what they want and is only one of many developments in the works.

How Good Design Enables Sustainable PCBs
08/21/2025 | Gerry Partida, Summit InterconnectSustainability has become a key focus for PCB companies seeking to reduce waste, conserve energy, and optimize resources. While many discussions on sustainability center around materials or energy-efficient processes, PCB design is an often overlooked factor that lies at the heart of manufacturing. Good design practices, especially those based on established IPC standards, play a central role in enabling sustainable PCB production. By ensuring designs are manufacturable and reliable, engineers can significantly reduce the environmental impact of their products.
50% Copper Tariffs, 100% Chip Uncertainty, and a Truce
08/19/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007If you’re like me, tariffs were not on your radar screen until a few months ago, but now political rhetoric has turned to presidential action. Tariffs are front-page news with major developments coming directly from the Oval Office. These are not typical times. President Donald Trump campaigned on tariff reform, and he’s now busy revamping America’s tariff policy.
Global PCB Connections: Understanding the General Fabrication Process—A Designer’s Hidden Advantage
08/14/2025 | Markus Voeltz -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsDesigners don’t need to become fabricators, but understanding the basics of PCB fabrication can save you time, money, and frustration. The more you understand what’s happening on the shop floor, the better you’ll be able to prevent downstream issues. As you move into more advanced designs like HDI, flex circuits, stacked vias, and embedded components, this foundational knowledge becomes even more critical. Remember: the fabricator is your partner.
