BOM Import Data Format

JITX supports importing BOM data for manufacturer names and manufacturer part numbers (MPN) in imported pcb-components. This feature requires generating a jitx-import-bom.tsv in the import data directory.

Prerequisites:

  • A Kicad or Altium project directory that is ready to be imported in JITX.

Preparing the Data for Import

BOM files must be tab-separated value (TSV) files named jitx-import-bom.tsv. Each row must contain the following information : 

Comma separated reference designators \t Manufacturer Name \t Input

Move the TSV File into place

The TSV file should be in the directory of the project to be imported.
