Adds step-by-step documentation for ordering assembled Stack-chan boards through JLCPCB's PCBA service, covering the complete workflow from downloading auto-generated files to placing orders.

Changes

New Documentation Files

  • schematics/docs/PCBA_ORDERING_ja.md (Japanese, 227 lines)
  • schematics/docs/PCBA_ORDERING.md (English, 227 lines)

Documentation Content

  • PCB/PCBA primer: Explains bare boards vs. assembled boards
  • Board specifications: m5-pantilt features, 2-layer FR-4, 1.6mm thickness, HASL finish
  • GitHub Actions workflow: Downloads Gerber files, BOM, and CPL from schematics-files artifacts
  • JLCPCB ordering: 9-step process covering account setup, file uploads, board parameters, component verification, and checkout
  • Practical guidance: Cost optimization, manual soldering requirements, troubleshooting

Updated Files

  • schematics/README.md and schematics/README_ja.md: Added links to PCBA ordering guides

Example Workflow

# Download from GitHub Actions
1. Navigate to Actions → "Generate Stack-chan Schematics Files"
2. Select latest successful run
3. Download "schematics-files" artifact
4. Extract Manufacturers/JLCPCB/*.zip, *.csv

# Upload to JLCPCB
- Gerber ZIP → PCB configuration (1.6mm, 2-layer, FR-4)
- Enable PCB Assembly → Economic type
- Upload BOM and CPL files
- Verify components and placement
Original prompt
