• allow greater wiring density on boardsFigure 1-39 illustrates how individual boards are mated to form the multilayer unit. Although allmultilayer boards are similarly constructed, various methods can be used to interconnect the circuitryfrom layer to layer. Three proven processes are the clearance-hole, plated-through hole, <strong>and</strong> layer buildupmethods.Figure 1-39.—Multilayer pcb.CLEARANCE-HOLE METHOD.—In the CLEARANCE-HOLE method, a hole is drilled in thecopper isl<strong>and</strong> (terminating end) of the appropriate conductor on the top layer. This provides access to aconductor on the second layer as shown by hole A in figure 1-40. The clearance hole is filled with solderto complete the connection. Usually, the hole is drilled through the entire assembly at the connection site.This small hole is necessary for the SOLDER-FLOW PROCESS used with this interconnection method.Figure 1-40.—Clearance-hole interconnection.1-37
