On the other hand, you can apply a conductive epoxy to the hole. If
processed properly it will finish out
with a very small convex pad to a perfectly flat pad.

Just to add to what Tom has said, voids are usually not huge (if everything
is fine with the process), so it should be nothings to worry about. In
addition, similar voids are not uncommon thing even in the joints on
microvia-free pads.

Hi Tom,
You will get voids in the solderjoints.
This is not necessarily a bad thing, but some would argue it is outside
the limits of the IPC-A-610. If you read it carefully, you will see that
IPC-A-610 gives a lot of freedom with respect to voiding (it suggests
some inpection criteria, that's all), so you have to ask the question if
everyone involved with the acceptance of the products is a carefull
reader.

We're a CM. One of our customers is asking us to build a board
assembly
that will be using BGAs with VIAs in pads. They are in the design
stages at
this point, and we have some concerns with having a Via in the middle
of a
BGA pad. Anyone have suggestions and/or experience with this??
Thanks
