It would be a process using some kind of Silver ink (lead-free) applied using screen printing principles, than it is cured and coated with an organic (Entek).  No HASL would be involve in the process.  (Co$t saving!!!)
(I'm concerned with the physical and electrical limitations of this technology.)

Hello!

I'm looking into something called silver through hole technology.

Could any of you give me inputs, opinions or  personal experience with
this technology?

Is it any good or it's more trouble then it's worth?

Thanks,
