How to Access Your CMC Microsystems Account and Support Resources

Updated

CMC Microsystems (cmc.ca) puts its account, support, and French-language entry points in the top navigation bar of every page: My Account, Support, Visit FABrIC, and Français. Use My Account to sign in to your existing CMC account, Support to reach help, Visit FABrIC to go to the FABrIC program site, and Français to switch the site to French. These are navigation links, not self-service signup or password-reset flows — the site does not document those steps, so account creation and recovery go through CMC directly.

Where each entry point is and what it does

The header repeats on the homepage and interior pages, so you can reach these from anywhere on cmc.ca.

Link What it opens When to use it
My Account The sign-in area for your CMC account You already have an account and need to reach member tools or services
Support CMC's support channel You need help with access, tools, or services
Visit FABrIC The FABrIC program site You want the FABrIC program rather than general CMC services
Français The French version of the site You prefer to read in French

Signing in through My Account

  1. Open cmc.ca.
  2. Select My Account in the top navigation.
  3. Enter your CMC credentials on the sign-in page.

Expected result: you land in your account area. If you don't have credentials yet, the site does not publish a self-service registration path — contact CMC through Support to ask how access is granted. Access to CMC's tools and services is tied to its programs and subscription arrangements, so eligibility is confirmed with CMC rather than on the public site.

Reaching support

Select Support in the header. Use it for questions about account access, EDA tools and cloud hosting, prototyping and packaging services, or training. The site lists a broad service catalog — MPW prototyping, packaging and assembly, CAD and cloud computing, equipment rental — but the support link is the documented route to ask about any of them.

Visiting FABrIC

Visit FABrIC takes you to CMC's FABrIC program pages. Choose it when your interest is the FABrIC program specifically (it appears alongside other programs such as CMC basecamp, Upskilling, TNT, VIE, and DUET) rather than general account or tool access.

Switching to French

Select Français in the header to load the French version of the page you're on. The link appears in both the top and repeated header rows, so you can switch from most pages without going back to the homepage.

Common sticking points

  • No visible sign-up or password-reset link. The public navigation shows only My Account; for a new account or a locked-out login, use Support.
  • Confusing FABrIC with the main site. FABrIC is a separate program destination behind Visit FABrIC; general tools and services live under the main site's Services and Programs menus.
  • Pricing and access terms aren't on the public pages. The site references subscription as a concept but does not publish prices or access conditions, so confirm eligibility and cost with CMC before planning around a service.
