Guys,

A EE there had convinced us to take small pours that connect to a tabs of a 
SOT-223 and add vias to the pour. Mind you that the pour were not gnd and 
had no reason to connect to a opposite side pour. The claim was that having 
holes in the board would help dissipate heat by air flow. I thought he was 
crazy. Then I saw an article that supported his claim. I can seem to find it 
now. Anyone remember seeing it. I think it was publish this year.


John
