<via />

Overview

A via is a plated hole that connects different layers of a PCB. Vias are commonly used to route traces between layers and for thermal management.

Vias do not have a schematic representation.

You generally do not need to manually create vias, they will be handled automatically by the autorouter.

export default () => (
  <board width={5} height={5}>
    <via
      fromLayer="top"
      toLayer="bottom"
      outerDiameter="0.8mm"
      holeDiameter="0.4mm"
      pcbX={0}
      pcbY={0}
    />
  </board>
)

Properties

Property	Type	Default	Description
fromLayer	string	"top"	Starting layer for the via
toLayer	string	"bottom"	Ending layer for the via
holeDiameter	number \| string	"0.4mm"	Diameter of the plated hole
outerDiameter	number \| string	"0.8mm"	Outer diameter of the copper annular ring
pcbX	number	0	PCB X position of the via
pcbY	number	0	PCB Y position of the via
netIsAssignable	boolean	`false`	Marks the via as prefabricated so autorouters like `laser_prefab` can claim it for any compatible net. For a full workflow, see the Biscuit Board Laser Ablation guide.
