Hi Randy,
ODB++ handles the HDI drill structures correctly (IMHO)
We have been using custom skill code for adding back-drill vias for 8+ years (
before Cadence added their limited back-drill capability ) & Valor translates
those drill structures correctly...

Hi Gary,
Still in Ft. Collins?
I sent ODB++ to my board shop, Prototron while I was at Micron, a few hundred
PCBs. And I concur with Oscar, ODB is a good measure of the capabilities of a
board shop. (and their financial strength, the V in Valor stands for Very
Expensive)
Related question does an ODB++ dataset have the intelligence for blind, buried
and backdrilling?
If we set up the padstacks for HDI technology, is ODB++ suficient or do we
still need to split out separate drill files?

I have been supplying ODB++ to suppliers in Asia, Europe, and US for over a
year now. Anyway I have found that quality suppliers support ODB++ and the bad
ones do not.
Best regards,

Hey guys,
Has anyone been supplying only the *.tgz file (instead of gerbers, drill, ipc
etc.) to the Fab house?
If you have, have you run into any issues (besides a Fab house unable or
unwilling to use only the *.tgz file)?
Thanks for any input.
