Cap to close off open via holes in PCBs

摘要

A process of forming a multi-layer electronic composite structure. The process includes providing at least one core including at least one plane of at least one electrically conducting material with a plane of at least one electrically insulating material on both sides of the at least one plane of at least one electrically conducting material. The at least one core includes a plurality of plated through holes formed therethrough. At least one pad is provided over at least one of the plated through holes. The pad provides a flat surface for attaching an electronic device and also prevents solder from entering the at least one plated through hole.
