Digi-Key Electronics Adds DKRed Custom Circuit Board Option to PCB Builder
March 30, 2021 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Digi-Key Electronics, the leading global electronic components distributor, launched the new DKRed program in its PCB Builder tool, which will allow makers, hobbyists and students to quote, source and order smaller quantities of custom print circuit boards (PCBs).
DKRed is a low-cost, quick-turn live feature in PCB Builder that has a minimum order quantity of just 4 boards, which can be as small as 1x1 inch. The turnaround time from ordering to delivery is approximately 10 days, with free shipping to all 50 U.S. states.
"With the launch of DKRed, Digi-Key is further committing to its mission of being a one-stop shop for turning a concept into reality for all customers," said Missy Hall, senior director, new market development for Digi-Key. "We are proud to enhance our PCB Builder tool to ensure that all stages in the design and development journey are supported, from design to prototyping, sourcing and beyond."
Digi-Key's PCB Builder tool, which launched in June 2020, streamlines the PCB ordering experience and allows customers to receive instant quotes from multiple PCB companies all in one place. PCB Builder is part of the Digi-Key Marketplace initiative, which provides a singular shopping experience for all things related to technology innovation -- IoT, industrial automation, test and measurement and more.

His advanced design classes take on some really interesting topics, including the impact of a designer’s choice of advanced packaging upon the design of the layer stackup. Kris shares his thoughts on the relationship between packaging and stackup, what PCB designers need to know, and why he believes, “The rules we used to live by are no longer valid.”
Beyond Design: AI-driven Inverse Stackup Optimization
12/26/2024 | Barry Olney -- Column: Beyond DesignArtificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how we conceptualize and design everything from satellites to PCBs. Traditionally, stackup planning is a manual process that can be multifaceted and relies heavily on the designer's expertise. Despite having best practices and various field solvers to optimize parameters, stackup planning remains challenging for complex designs with advanced packaging, several layers, multiple power pours, and controlled impedance requirements.
