Hi, I'm using a thick-substrate PCB, so that I can include screw terminals
on the board and it won't flex too much when the screwdriver is applied. The
board thickness is such that DIP pins only just poke through to the copper
layer, to the point where soldering could be unreliable. The problem is
solvable by drilling larger diameter holes from the non-copper side
partially through, so that the packages sit lower on the board. Do PCB
manufacturers routinely provide program-controlled drilling of this sort,
does it have a name? TIA
if you get no answer here try sci.electronics.manufacture
plate thru holes could be anorther solution, sticking the dips in
wire-wrap sockets (which have long pins) yet another.
