What Microcircuitos does
Microcircuitos S.A.S. is a Colombian electronics manufacturing services company founded circa 1983 and headquartered in Cali, with operations spanning PCB fabrication and SMT/THT assembly. The company manufactures single- and double-layer printed circuit boards on FR1, FR4, and aluminum substrates (the latter for LED applications) using five SMT lines and offers a vertically integrated stack that includes component sourcing, Gerber and BOM review support, PCBA assembly, and box-build final assembly. It runs an Odoo-based e-commerce storefront selling electronics components, test equipment, and tools to hobbyists and prototypers. Microcircuitos also serves as the authorized distributor for Altium Designer electronic design software across much of South and Central America and for NeoDen SMT equipment in the region.
The company generates revenue from multiple streams: quote-based PCB manufacturing and PCBA assembly services billed under multi-year contracts; unit-priced e-commerce sales of third-party components and tools; licensing/margin from Altium software distribution; and hardware margin from NeoDen pick-and-place, reflow, and stencil-printer sales. Its go-to-market combines direct B2B sales (request-a-quote, account management) targeting US nearshoring customers with a self-serve e-commerce channel for SMBs and hobbyists. Customer segments are diversified across electronics manufacturers, educational institutions, and US firms seeking Asian-supply-chain alternatives.
Microcircuitos operates from a single site in Cali (Carrera 24 # 5-90, Zip 760034) with 11–50 employees, and has invested in a 102-panel/325 kWp solar array that delivers an 83.1% energy efficiency coefficient. There is no disclosed evidence of external investment, acquisitions, or leadership changes; the entity is privately held and independently operated.

Microcircuitos competitors and assessment
Company assessmentEmerging players
- Aisler: Germany-based online PCB fabrication and assembly service targeting European makers and small businesses. Comparable offering profile to Microcircuitos' e-commerce PCB service, and an example of the digitally-native small-batch PCB category globally.
Direct peers
- MacroFab: North American PCB assembly marketplace and EMS provider. Directly comparable in PCBA services and nearshoring positioning for US customers, and offers a more digitally-enabled factory network model.
- Sierra Circuits: US-based PCB manufacturer serving prototype through production volumes. Comparable in offering quick-turn PCB fabrication and assembly with emphasis on speed and quality, though with broader technical capabilities including higher layer counts.
- Eurocircuits: Belgium-based PCB manufacturer serving prototype and small-series volumes across Europe. Comparable business model (low-to-mid volume PCB fab + assembly for engineers/small businesses) and similar emphasis on online self-service quoting.
- JLCPCB: China-based online low-volume PCB fabrication and assembly service. Directly competes with Microcircuitos in the prototype-to-low-volume PCB segment, though at significantly lower unit cost and much higher scale.
- PCBWay: Global online PCB fabrication, PCBA, and stencil service headquartered in China. Closely comparable in offering (PCB fab + assembly + rapid-turn prototypes) and competes head-to-head for the same hobbyist and small-business customers Microcircuitos targets.
- OSH Park: US-based small-batch PCB fabrication service focused on prototypes and hobbyists. Comparable in serving low-volume, fast-turn PCB demand for makers and engineers, with a similar self-service online quoting model.
Broad incumbents
- Flex: Singapore-headquartered global EMS giant with PCB assembly, manufacturing services, and design support. Represents the strategic endpoint of the EMS value chain Microcircuitos participates in as a smaller regional player.
- Sanmina: Global EMS incumbent with PCB fabrication, assembly, and full box-build capabilities. Provides the upper-bound scale and capability benchmark against which Microcircuitos' turnkey EMS positioning is compared.
- AdvancedPCB: US-based PCB manufacturer (formerly Advanced Circuits) offering prototype through production PCBs. Larger scale and broader technical capability than Microcircuitos, with established US enterprise customer base — a relevant incumbent for similar buyer RFPs.
