I am fowarding this question from one of the design engineers
where I work.  All of our circuit boards are design as class 3
(high rel.), at least that is what we advertise.

Does getting rid of all unused pads on inner layers have any
profound affect on the PHT barrel integrity especially with high
layer count / thick circuit boards?

Thanks for your help,

Gary Bremer
Manufacturing Engineer
