[Column] What are Gerber Data and BOM? About Their Roles and Relationships

What is the Gerber data necessary for circuit board manufacturing? Introducing its role, format, and creation process! Leave the implementation and assembly of circuit boards to Nippo!

Gerber data refers to the standard format design data used during circuit board manufacturing. Its main role is to convey the layout information of the circuit board, indicating wiring patterns, pad positions, and the arrangement of vias (through holes) to ensure that manufacturing machines can process it accurately. On the other hand, a BOM (Bill of Materials) is a data list that compiles all the component information to be mounted on the circuit board, accurately conveying details such as component types, part numbers, quantities, and placement information. When outsourcing circuit board assembly, it is important to check the Gerber data requirements in advance and prepare an accurate BOM. Since Gerber data communicates the design information of the circuit board and the BOM details the electronic components to be mounted, ensuring consistency between the two leads to smooth production and cost reduction.
