Pat:
IPC-D-275, Design Standard for Rigid Boards and Rigid Board Assemblies,
includes formulas for thermal relief. The relationship between the hole
size, land and web area is critical. Typically, divide 60% of the minimum
land area diameter by the number of webs desired to obtain the width of
each web. If the land diameter is greater than the minimum value
calculated, the percentage difference between the land diameters must be
subtracted from the total web width calculation. Total cumulative copper
web for all layers in any plated through hole should not exceed 4.06mm
for 1 oz. copper of 2.03 mm for 2 oz. copper.
The total of the thermal relief cross-sectional area divided by the
number of planes connected to the plated through hole shall not violate
the current carrying capacity requirements for a given hole.
