摘要:
In conventional ETM circuit structures a pin connector in which the pin is etched from the ETM substrate and the mating cavity is etched from the ETM substrate to be mated. The connector utilizes the subtractive ETM structure processing to define any one of several pin-cavity configurations. The pin serves as an anchor with the metallurgical bonds with solder in the cavity that forms on the copper surfaces of the ETM circuit structure to give good mechanical strength to the connection. In particular four different configurations of interconnections are shown and described.

A tri-metallic material for use in the manufacture of printed circuit boards is described. and the process for its manufacture is described. The tri-metallic material is a sandwich wherein a copper layer is essential the "bread" of the sandwich and an aluminum layer is the filling between both slices of bread. A metallic bonding and/or barrier layer is spread on the aluminum and is selected for its highly non-corrosive properties as well as its bonding, and diffusion inhibiting capabilities.

A circuit component secured to a printed circuit board typically uses fine wires for completing the circuit from the printed circuit to the component. The component may be an integrated circuit having one or more pads thereon for receiving the wire. A device and method for making the device has the printed circuit formed on the PCB with one or more wire traces that are etched away from the printed circuit. The etchant removes a portion of the bottom layer and sometimes the middle layer of an etched tri-metal along with any lamination and adhesive. This forms a free end of the wire trace that is bonded to the component. Additional wires are not required.

A tri-metallic material (10) for use in the manufacture of printed circuit boards is described and the process for its manufacture is described. The tri-metallic material (10) is a sandwich wherein a copper layer (18,20) is essential the "bread" of the sandwich and an aluminum layer (12) is the filling between both slices of bread. A metallic bonding and/or barrier layer (30,32) is spread on the aluminum (12) and is selected for its highly non-corrosive properties as well as its bonding, and diffusion inhibiting capabilities.

In conventional ETM (Etched Tri-Metal) circuit structures a pin connector in which the pin (30) is etched from the ETM substrate (16) and the mating cavity (32) is etched from the ETM substrate (18) to be mated. The connector utilizes the subtractive ETM structure processing to define any one of several pin-cavity configurations. The pin (30) serves as an anchor with the metallurgical bonds with solder (34) in the cavity (32) that forms on the copper surfaces (24,26) of the ETM circuit structures (16,18) to give good mechanical strength to the connection. In particular four different configurations of interconnections are shown and described.

摘要:
A method for forming sets (10,12,14) of tri-metal material involving the use of cladding mills (16,18,20,22). When multiple sets (10,12,14) of tri-metal material are formed, the outside surfaces of each set (10,12,14) is prepared by oxidation to prevent each set from adhering to the set above or below. An alternative to oxidation is to provide a removable layer (32) on the outside surface of the tri-metal material. Alternatively bonding materials (36) may be used on the intermediate surfaces; such bonding materials (36) can be selected from a group consisting of tin, nickel, titanium, chromium, silver and zinc.
