What JLCPCB does

JLCPCB helps with PCB fabrication and assembly planning in KiCad, including BOM/CPL setup, part categories, design rules, and ordering constraints. Use it when preparing boards for JLCPCB manufacturing or checking assembly limits and costs.

JLCPCB is cataloged under DevOps on DirSkills. JLCPCB comes from a repository tagged ai-skills, bom-management, claude-code, codex and design-review.

Documentation

README

JLCPCB — PCB Fabrication & Assembly

JLCPCB is a PCB fabrication and assembly service based in Shenzhen, China. It is a sister company to LCSC Electronics (common ownership) — they share the same parts library.

Typical usage: Order bare prototype PCBs + framed stencil from JLCPCB during prototyping (parts sourced separately from DigiKey/Mouser, hand-assembled in lab). For production runs (100s qty), order fully assembled boards from JLCPCB using LCSC parts. PCBWay is an alternative assembler. For component searching, see the lcsc skill. For BOM management, gerber/CPL export, and stencil ordering, see the bom skill.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.

Frequently asked about JLCPCB

  • What else does aklofas publish alongside JLCPCB?

    JLCPCB is one of 11 skills that DirSkills catalogs from aklofas/kicad-happy, the repository it ships in. Its siblings there include BOM Management, Datasheets and DigiKey Parts Search. Each one is a separate skill with its own page in this directory, installs the same way JLCPCB does, and is maintained by aklofas in that same repository. The rest of the collection is listed on the aklofas/kicad-happy page.

  • How does JLCPCB compare to other DevOps skills?

    JLCPCB ranks #449 by stars among the 798 DevOps skills in this catalog. The most-starred ones next to it are Backend Patterns, API Connector Builder and Migration. DirSkills ranks by the star count of the repository each skill ships in, so that order reflects how popular those repositories are rather than any review of JLCPCB against them. Open each page to compare what they document and how they install.

BOM Management

BOM Management coordinates sourcing, pricing, stock checks, and order-file export for KiCad electronics projects. It uses schematic symbol properties as the source of truth when you need parts lists, distributor searches, or fabrication prep.

Datasheets

Datasheets extracts structured specifications from electronic component datasheet PDFs for pinouts, electrical characteristics, peripherals, topology, and features. Use it when you need verified per-MPN specs or when analyzer skills need cached datasheet facts.
