We had an assembly in test and one of the technicians accidently probed a
pad and shorted the probe to ground.  This drew about 1.6 amps (calculated)
for about 100 miliseconds.

Is there a chart, guideline, calculation or something that will tell me what
damage would occur  to the internal trace/laminate with such an event.

Thanks in advance,

Pete
