If there are any designers out there, perhaps you can help me with a question.
 My question(s) is: how do you calculate the current carrying capacity of a
via?  I have calculated the area of a 6 mil via and a 4 mil trace to the via
and the area of the via is about 100x that of the trace.  But, how do you
calculate this with respect to a power layer?

Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thank you
