| Should I use thermals or direct connects on | vias from BGA pads to power planes. The via is | connected to the BGA pad via a short 8mil trace. Thermals are safest. However, I have had no problems using direct connects provided parameters are capab

Hi, Has anyone done some research (measurement/simulation) on the effect of PWB vias on solder ball temperature of the component? Would this have some effect on solder joint reliability especially during power cycling? Any comments will be appreciat

For VIA In PAD design, what's the difference between a thru vias and a blind via? thanks' chester

Consider a 6 layer board. The Through via gets drilled from top layer to bottom layer. All 6 layers has the hole drilled in it. A blind via is a via that does not got through the entire 6 layers. It would go from layer 1 to layer 2. or layer 6 to lay

Blind vias are just that. They do not show on the surface sides of the pwb.

thanks! So, why via in pad design is implemented? what's the advantages of it?

Via in pad lets your layout guy run traces on inner layers so there's more more area available on the outer layers for placing parts, test point, etc. There are also electrical advantages due to shortening paths, but I'm just a simple mechanical eng
