If you want more than one or two, then consider DirtyPCB. They’ll do 9-12 for the price of 5. Both have decent and simple pricing model. I think in both cases that you pay for the whole square inch (so if you use only half of it, you should see if you can put a second copy within the footprint).<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">Also note that these companies do not QA your designs.
