PCB Fabrication Sourcing Across Asia
Bare printed circuit boards sourced from vetted manufacturers across India, China, Vietnam and Thailand, with DFM review, IPC-standard quality control, and global logistics support from prototype through production volume.
Your trusted sourcing partner for PCB fabrication
A board that passes visual inspection can still fail in the field if impedance isn't controlled, via plating is too thin, or the laminate wasn't rated for your reflow profile. For engineering and procurement teams sourcing PCBs overseas, that gap between "looks fine" and "meets spec" is where programs get expensive. AASA connects U.S. electronics companies and OEMs with fabricators across India, China, Vietnam, and Thailand that hold the IPC certifications and process controls those details depend on, matched to your layer count, material, and volume, whether the program is a five-piece prototype run or an ongoing production order tied to a long-term supply agreement.
Before a factory is confirmed, AASA's team runs a DFM review against your Gerber or ODB++ files, flagging issues like insufficient annular ring or trace spacing before they turn into scrapped panels. Through production we track electrical test results and IPC compliance, and every order is inspected before shipment. Freight, customs, and, where your program calls for it, coordination with a downstream assembly partner all run through the same point of contact, so a qualified board reaches your line ready to populate.

Comprehensive PCB fabrication capabilities
Board complexity ranges from a simple single-sided panel to a controlled-impedance HDI stackup, and each tier needs a factory with the process control to match. AASA sources across the capabilities below, matched to your design's actual requirements rather than the nearest available line.
Standard boards for lower-complexity designs, sourced at prototype and production volume.
4 to 20-plus layer boards with controlled stackups for dense, high-speed, or high-density designs.
Flexible and rigid-flex constructions for space-constrained or dynamic-flex applications.
Aluminum and copper-backed boards for thermal management in LED and power electronics designs.
Microvia HDI construction and impedance-controlled boards for RF and high-speed digital designs.
ENIG, HASL, lead-free HASL, immersion silver, immersion tin, and OSP finishes to your assembly requirements.
Send your drawing or spec and we'll come back with a factory match and a quote in 48 hours — no obligation.
Join the OEMs and engineering teams already sourcing PCB fabrication through AASA.
Laminate choice drives thermal performance, signal integrity, and cost, and the wrong call shows up later as delamination, impedance drift, or a board that can't survive your reflow profile. AASA sources across the substrates below, matched to your design's thermal, electrical, and mechanical requirements.
- FR4 Standard - General purpose
- FR4 High-Tg - Higher thermal reliability
- Rogers / RF Laminate - RF, microwave designs
- Aluminum MCPCB - LED, power electronics
- Polyimide - Flex & rigid-flex

How we manage your PCB fabrication
A consistent process tailored to your layer count, material, and certification requirements.
We review your Gerber or ODB++ files, layer stackup, and material spec, flagging DFM issues before production.
We select the most suitable PCB fabricator from our audited supplier network based on IPC certification, layer capability, and capacity.
First-article approval, electrical test review, and in-process checks confirm the board meets your spec through the run.
Every order undergoes final quality inspection before secure packaging and coordinated shipping to your dock.

Direct Factory vs Sourcing Through AASA
Reduce sourcing risks, simplify supplier management, and gain access to a vetted network of PCB fabrication partners across India, China, Vietnam, and Thailand, all through a single point of contact.
Direct Factory
- Limited to the layer count and certification level of one factory
- Time-consuming supplier research and qualification
- You run DFM review against your own resources
- Quality and IPC compliance oversight depends on your internal team
- Need to coordinate production updates yourself
- Limited alternatives if production issues occur
- You handle supplier negotiations
- Separate management of logistics and export documentation
- Multiple contacts across fabrication and assembly vendors
- Higher risk when sourcing from an unfamiliar supplier
AASA Sourcing
- Access to a network of vetted, IPC-certified PCB fabricators across Asia
- Factory selection based on your layer count, material, and volume requirements
- Dedicated DFM and engineering support before production begins
- Independent quality and electrical test inspections before shipment
- Regular production monitoring and progress reporting
- Ability to identify alternative qualified suppliers when needed
- Assistance with pricing, terms, and supplier coordination
- End-to-end coordination, including shipping and export support
- One dedicated point of contact throughout the project
- Reduced sourcing risk through supplier evaluation and ongoing oversight

What layer counts and board thicknesses can AASA source?
AASA's network covers single-sided and double-sided PCBs through multilayer boards from 4 to 20-plus layers, in standard thicknesses from 0.4mm to 3.2mm. Factory selection is based on your layer count, stackup, and target impedance requirements.
Can AASA source PCBs built to IPC Class 2 or Class 3 standards?
Yes. AASA works with factories qualified to IPC-A-600 and IPC-6012 Class 2 for general electronics and Class 3 for high-reliability applications such as medical, aerospace, and defense, and can request inspection reports and certificates of conformance for your order.
What surface finishes are available for PCB fabrication?
AASA sources ENIG, HASL and lead-free HASL, immersion silver, immersion tin, and OSP surface finishes. The right choice depends on your assembly process, shelf life requirements, and whether the board has fine-pitch components or gold-finger connectors.
Can AASA source controlled-impedance boards for RF or high-speed designs?
Yes. AASA's network includes factories experienced in controlled-impedance fabrication using standard FR4 as well as RF laminates such as Rogers material, with impedance verified by test coupon measurement before boards ship.
Does AASA also source PCB assembly in addition to bare board fabrication?
Yes. AASA can coordinate SMT and through-hole assembly alongside bare board fabrication, so your program moves from qualified panel to populated, tested board through a single point of contact rather than separate vendors.
Which countries does AASA source plating from?
AASA's plating network spans India, China, Vietnam, and Thailand. Country selection depends on your base metal, plating type, volume, environmental compliance requirements, and target landed cost.
What files do you need to quote a PCB fabrication order?
We typically need Gerber or ODB++ files, a drill file, your layer stackup and material specification, surface finish, impedance requirements if applicable, estimated quantities, and your target timeline. If your design isn't finalized yet, our team can still review preliminary files and discuss DFM feedback.
