Abstract

The present invention provides a method of creating a circuit board having burr free castellated plated through holes. In particular, the leading edge of the plated through hole, that tends to produce burr formation using conventional profiling methods, is removed or pre-profiled. The pre-profiled plated through hole is then profiled at a distance slightly off-set from the pre-profiled edge to further prevent burr formation.
