Introduction In printed circuit board (PCB) design, blind vias play an important role in allowing connections between different layers of the board while conserving space. Blind vias are plated-through holes that connect only two or more internal layers of a PCB without connecting to the external layers. One of the […]

Introduction A via is a small opening in a printed circuit board (PCB) that allows different layers to be electrically connected. Vias make it possible to route traces between different layers in the PCB stackup. There are several types of vias used in PCBs, including through hole vias, blind vias, […]

Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components in all types of electronic devices and equipment. They provide the mechanical support and electrical connectivity for the components that make up the electronic circuitry. An important aspect of PCB design is the use of vias – plated-through holes that connect different […]

Introduction to Blind Vias in Pads A blind via is a hole that connects different layers of a multilayer printed circuit board (PCB) without going all the way through the entire board. Blind vias are often used in pad designs, allowing connections between the pad and internal layers while avoiding […]

What are Blind Vias in PCBs? A blind via is a plated hole that connects different layers of a printed circuit board (PCB) without going all the way through the entire board. Blind vias connect an inner layer to an outer layer, stopping before they reach the opposite outer layer. […]

What are Blind Vias? A blind via is a hole that connects different layers of a printed circuit board (PCB) without going all the way through the entire board. Blind vias are only open on one side, stopping at an internal layer. They allow connections between layers that are not […]

What are Blind Vias? Blind vias, also known as buried vias, are plated through-holes in a printed circuit board (PCB) that connect internal layers without being visible or accessible from the outer layers. Unlike standard through-hole vias which span the entire board, blind vias start and stop within the internal […]

Introduction Blind vias are an essential part of many printed circuit board (PCB) designs today. As PCBs grow denser and more complex, blind vias allow connections between layers without using up valuable surface real estate. However, there are costs associated with incorporating blind vias that designers should understand thoroughly before […]

Introduction For thousands of years, humans have dug tunnels beneath the surface of the Earth for various purposes, from mining precious metals and stones to creating underground transportation routes. In ancient times, many of these subterranean passageways were dug for ritualistic or strategic reasons that today seem mystical and intriguing. […]

Introduction to Buried Vias A via is a conductive hole that connects different layers in a printed circuit board (PCB). Vias provide vertical interconnections and enable traces to change layers and connect components and pads on different layers. A buried via is a special type of via that is completely […]
