How feasible is it to have your custom instrumentation fabricated by JLC?
I'm a retiring electrical engineer in a major (USA) research university, trying to figure out ways to lessen the impact of my departure on my clientele. I'm leaving a trove of 600+ PCB designs for lab instrumentation, and no technician to solder them. Many of these designs contain QFN packages and other tetchy parts that require decent soldering equipment and skills, which my clients lack. I'm interested in good/bad experiences you've had in farming out board populating to places like JLCPCB. So far the experience of my peers has been all over the place. Typically the fabrication quality has been good, but parts inventory management has been terrible. Thoughts?
