Topic: Plated, non-round holes

Plated, non-round holes
I am designing a board around an IC with non-standard leads. The hole in the PCB must accept a rectangular lead that is 4mm by 1.5mm. Is it possible to build a board with plated holes that aren't round?

Hi Brian,
Yes indeed this is possible. Oue minimum slot size is 1mm x 3mm. Please take into account that the corners of the slot will be rounded when creating your slot size.
