A multi-layer metal core printed circuit board (MCPCB) has mounted on it at least one or more heat-generating LEDs and one or more devices configured to provide current to the one or more LEDs. The one or more devices may include a device that carries a steep slope voltage waveform. Since there is typically a very thin dielectric between the patterned copper layer and the metal substrate, the steep slope voltage waveform may produce a current in the metal substrate due to AC coupling via parasitic capacitance. This AC-coupled current may produce electromagnetic interference (EMI). To reduce the EMI, a local shielding area may be formed between the metal substrate and the device carrying the steep slope voltage waveform. The local shielding area may be conductive and may be electrically connected, to a DC voltage node adjacent to the one or more devices.

The method may include drilling to remove at least a portion of a stub region of a via of the set of vias. The method may include performing an electrical test to determine whether a sliver of conductive material is included within the via after drilling to remove the at least a portion of the stub region of the via.

The present invention provides a method for detecting and adjusting failed back-drills in PCBs in the process of fabricating a PCB so that the failed back-drill can be screened out or repaired. This is accomplished, by after detecting poor back drills in a PCB, measuring the actual thickness of each PCB board. Next, the measured actual thickness of each PCB board is compared with .the theoretical thickness of each PCB board. The back drill depth for each area of the PCB board is then adjusted for its theoretical thickness and percent variation from the measured thickness.to adjust the poor back drill.
