Deposition of copper in the holes of printed circuit boards is influenced by mass transportation. The average throw decreases with decreasing hole diameter. The average throw also decreases with increasing average current density. However, the throwing power can be improved by appropriate adjustment of the anodic pulse durations after cathodic pulses with high duty cycles and for lower duty cycles. The adjustment of the periods of the individual cathodic pulses is also important.
