To get started, you’ll first need to order the DexUMI circuit board. In this tutorial, we use JLCPCB as the PCB manufacturer.
On the JLCPCB homepage, click the
Order Now button and follow the step-by-step guide in the image tutorial below.
First, upload the Gerber file we provided (click the download button above to get it).
Second, follow the image tutorial below to select the correct manufacturer parameters.
On the new page, click the Bill of Materials column, then upload the BOM file and Pick and Place file we provided.
After processing, you’ll be presented with a parts confirmation list. If everything is in stock, simply click the NEXT button. If not, you’ll need to manually select similar parts using the suggestions provided by the ordering system.
The system may display a message like Project has unselected parts. Don’t worry — this happens because we include some NC (Not Connected) parts, which are not meant to be assembled. Simply click the Do not place button to proceed.
🎉 Hurray! The last step! You can now preview the 3D model of your circuit board. If all parts are rendered correctly and look similar to the images below, go ahead and click the NEXT button to place the order!
