Hi,

Some surface mount modules that I bought are made from regular PCB
material and the mounting pads seem to be plated through holes cut in
half.

I can't buy those modules anymore and the manufacturers have made lots
of our product but without these modules.  I need to make an adaptor pcb
and doing it the way the orignal modules were made seems to be the
easiest.

They are just PTH cut in half with a nice cutting tool aren't they? Or
are they a PCB with half of the PTH on the PCB and the other half
falling off the side?

If I went to our rapid prototyping people with this on our PCB would
they understand?  Do you understand what I mean?

Rod.
