Abstract: An improved omni-directional non-occluding solder pad design for printed circuit boards comprising a plurality of spokes radiating outward from a through-hole on the printed circuit board, with a ring concentric to the through-hole that intersects each of the plurality of spokes at approximately a perpendicular angle. The ringed-spoke configuration eliminates the need to ensure proper orientation of the solder pad on the printed circuit board prior to a wave soldering process since the symmetrical ringed-spoke design is omni-directional. The concentric ring structure provides an additional contact area of solder between the printed circuit board and a computer chassis. This additional contact area of solder ensures that there is a sufficient electrical connection between the printed circuit board and the computer chassis such that when the printed circuit board is mounted to the computer chassis, a proper grounding connection is provided.
