My previous experience of tented vias was applying soldermask over vias to
provide electrical insulation to the pad edges.    I believe it was to avoid
the cost / process of buried vias.  The soldermask must be thick enought to
tent the via.

Subject: [TN] Definition of Tent Via

Hello,

Can someone give me a simple, clear and correct definition of tent via (both
signal and via-on-pad)? What is the process that go into making this tent
via?

Regards,
Wee Mei
