We only start adding the extra charge considering the Lot size.....from below 4mils and 12mils for the finished hole size. -----Original Message----- From: Jean-Luc Lehmann [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Wednesday, August 15, 2001 7:00 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] Cost effective Standard via size. I found out that "standard" PCB fabs usually start to charge extra cost if you go below 20 mils hole diameter (0.5mm). But it much depends on the tooling they got. Similarly I use trace width above 8 mils (200um). Jean-Luc Lehmann Ken Patel <[log in to unmask] To: [log in to unmask] OM> cc: Sent by: Subject: [TN] Cost effective Standard via size. TechNet <[log in to unmask] ORG> 15.08.01 00:41 Please respond to "TechNet E-Mail Forum." What is the standard minimum finished via size that will not add cost too much? I do not want to specify the very small via which will drive the price very high and at the same time not too big via size from the real estate point of view. re, Ken Patel ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send the following message: SET Technet NOMAIL Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send the following message: SET Technet NOMAIL Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8d To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt delivery of Technet send the following message: SET Technet NOMAIL Search previous postings at: www.ipc.org > On-Line Resources & Databases > E-mail Archives Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
