["Jackson, T L" <t.l.jackson@xxxxxxxx>]

As a quick approximation, one could calculate the cross-sectional area of
the via and compare the via's cross-sectional area with copper wire guages
for which current capacities are given.

I am in search for a formula for calculating "Current Carrying capacity" of 
a Via. All the Books talk about Traces only. Help me out..


Thanks!
