Manufacturability Check: PLCC68 Prototype Plug with Plated Dent Contacts

Dear PCBWay Team,


I would like to ask for a manufacturability check before placing an order.

We are designing a prototype PLCC68 socket plug PCB. The board has a comb/dent-like edge shape with 68 contacts at 1.27 mm pitch. The dent structure is intentional and required to fit into a standard PLCC68 socket.

I have attached:

Gerber files of the proposed design

3D/render images of the intended PCB shape

A reference image showing the desired final appearance of the plated dent/contact areas

Our main question is simple:

Can PCBWay manufacture this type of plated dent/contact structure — yes or no?

The preferred solution would be edge plating / side plating on the front face of each dent/contact finger. If this is not possible, please advise whether it could be made using a castellated-hole / half-hole process instead.

This is only a prototype test board, so minor cosmetic imperfections are acceptable, but the contact areas must remain electrically usable.

Thank you very much for checking this request.


Best regards,

Andrejs Ogurcovs
