Hi Werner,
What about some consideration for the HAL or solder prep. ? It
is known to "etch" away some of the copper.. thus reducing eventually the
thickness of the barrel at its weakest places ?

design with mask over vias. I have seen no evidence, nor do physics-of-failure considerations suggest there should be any, that there is an "increase in PTV barrel strength by filling the hole with solder." PTV interconnect structures can suffer 2 major failure modes: (1) barrel fracture, and (2) inner-layer separation [ILS]. Barrel fracture: I have seen no evidence, nor do physics-of-failure considerations suggest there should be any, that there is an "increase in PTV barrel strength by filling the hole with solder" regarding this failure mode. ILS: Filling the PTV barrel does strengthen the PTV barrel radially--it thus can resist the compressive loads from the resin thermal expansion trying to collapse the barrel. There is both experimental evidence and analytical reasons; however, I have not seen an analysis yet quantifying this effect. Werner Engelmaier Engelmaier Associates, L.C.
