7.3 Via on Pad

The use of via on pad increases the cost of PCB because of the extra fabrication cycle of PCB, as it requires copper plating to cover the via on the pad. The pad is used to mount the components. The addition of micro vias, via-in-pad, and layers increase the PCB cost.

Important: For information about the PCB fabrication costs, contact the PCB fabrication vendor.
