According to the FAQ on PCB rules and limits: http://batchpcb.com/index.php/Faq#What% … d%20limits, all drill hits are plated through. What does that mean? Does it mean I can use my component pads just like a via and that that the top and bottom layer of the pad are connected?
Yes, all holes have copper plating inside them, so pads on the top layer will be electrically connected to pads on the bottom layer.
And you can’t have any non-plated holes.
Ok thanks a lot.
