Design and PCB Translation
It is not uncommon for a customer to come to us with the remnants of a design, asking us if there is anything to salvage. The good news is that we do so regularly. The time and effort will depend on what file(s) are available and what actual hardware can be referenced.
Restoration is a broad concept. This can be anything from updating a board due to component obsolescence, restoring the source files so the board can be modified for additional functionality, or presenting it to other fabricators and assemblers for manufacturing.
We could spell out all of the different files and scenarios, and we have. For those who want to take charge of a PCB translation project themselves, we've put together a "Translation Checklist" guide.

In the end, if you don't know what you have, such verbiage will be of little value. Please get in touch with us, and we will determine what you have and what we can do to move you forward.
