摘要:
Conductive substructures of a multilayered laminate and associated methods of fabrication. The conductive substructures include a 0S1P substructure, a 0S3P substructure, and a 2S1P substructure, in accordance with the notation nSmP, wherein n and m are non-negative integers, wherein S stands for “signal plane,” and wherein P stands for “power plane.” A signal plane is characterized by its inclusion of a layer comprising conductive circuitry. A power plane is characterized by its inclusion of a continuously conductive layer. Thus, a 0S1P substructure includes 0 signal planes and 1 power plane (n=0, m=1). A 0S3P substructure includes 0 signal planes and 3 power plane (n=0, m=3) with a dielectric layer between each pair of power planes. A 2S1P substructure includes 2 signal planes and 1 power plane (n=2, m=1) with a dielectric layer between the power plane and each signal plane. A multilayered laminate includes a stacked substructure configuration having any combination of 0S1P, 0S3P, and 2S1P substructures with dielectric material insulatively separating the substructures from one another.

A laminate circuit structure assembly is provided that comprises at least two modularized circuitized plane subassemblies; a joining layer located between each of the subassemblies and wherein the subassemblies and joining layer are bonded together with a cured dielectric from a bondable, curable dielectric. The subassemblies and joining layer are electrically interconnected with bondable electrically conductive material. The joining layer comprises dielectric layers disposed about an internal electrically conductive layer. The electrically conductive layer has a via and the dielectric layers each have a via of smaller diameter than the vias in the electrically conductive layer and are aligned with the vias in the electrically conductive layer. The vias are filled with electrically bondable electrically conductive material for providing electrical contact between the subassemblies.

A method is provided for connecting two conductive layers in an electronic circuit package comprising the steps of forming dendrites on selected regions of a first conductive layer, forming dendrites on selected regions of a second conductive layer, applying an epoxy adhesive material over the first conductive layer, and compressively attaching the second conductive layer to the first conductive layer such that the dendrites on the first conductive layer contact the dendrites on the second conductive layer. Also claimed is an electronic circuit package incorporating the dendrites used for electrical interconnection manufactured in accordance with the present invention. An alternative embodiment of the invention utilizes an intermediate surface metal with dendrites in place of a “through via.”

A technique for forming an organic chip carrier or circuit board, having two voltage planes and at least two signal planes is provided which includes bonding a first layer of photolithographic dielectric material to a first metal layer and exposing the first layer of dielectric material to a pattern of radiation to provide at least one opening through the first layer of the dielectric material. A second metal layer is bonded to the first layer of photoimageable material on the opposite side from the first metal layer. Holes are etched in the first and second metal layers which correspond to and are larger than each of the patterns on said openings in the first layer of dielectric material. The exposed pattern on the first layer of dielectric material is then developed, with the openings in the first and second metal layers being larger than the corresponding developed opening in the first dielectric material. Second and third layers of photoimageable dielectric material are applied on the first and second metal layers, respectively and are photopatterned and developed to provide openings in each of the second and third layers of dielectric material some of which correspond to each of the holes in the first layer of dielectric material and the holes in the first and second metal layers, some of which terminate at the underlying metal layer. The exposed surfaces of both the second and third dielectric material, are circuitized and the holes plated or filled with metal.
摘要:
A cavity-type chip module. The module is formed with an adhesive joining layer of photoimageable material interposed between a metal stiffener and a laminate top layer with a central aperture defined in the top layer. The photoimageable material is exposed to actinic radiation, except for an area corresponding to the aperture in the top layer. The unexposed area of photoimageable material is developed away to form a window in the joining layer. The top layer, joining layer, and stiffener are laminated together with the window and aperture aligned, and with a portion of the stiffener spanning the aperture to define a cavity in the resulting substrate. The removal of the unexposed photoimageable material, and the selective exposure of the joining layer to actinic radiation, keep the cavity free of photoimageable material and inhibit bleeding of the photoimageable material into the cavity from its inner edge. As a result, a semiconductor component can be flush mounted in the cavity with optimal thermal conductivity to the metal stiffener.
摘要:
The present invention is a persulfate etchant composition especially useful for dissolving copper during fabrication of microelectronic packages. The etchant is characterized by its ability to selectively etch copper in the presence of nickel, nickel-phosphorous and noble metal alloys therefrom. Furthermore, no deleterious galvanic etching occurs in this etchant-substrate system so that substantially no undercutting of the copper occurs. The combination of high selectivity and no undercutting allows for a simplification of the microelectronic fabrication process and significant improvements in the design features of the microelectronic package, in particular higher density circuits. The persulfate etchant composition is stabilized with acid and phosphate salts to provide a process that is stable, fast acting, environmentally acceptable, has high capacity, and can be performed at room temperature. A preferred etchant composition is 230 gm/liter sodium persulfate, 3 volume % phosphoric acid and 0.058 molar sodium phosphate dibasic.
摘要:
A method for manufacturing electronic circuit assemblies. A layer of dielectric material is attached to a layer of electrically conductive material. Vias are formed in the layer of dielectric material and filled with conductive paste material. The resulting assembly is attached to a substrate. Because the vias are formed and filled before the dielectric layer is attached to the substrate, it is not necessary to scrap the entire multi-layer structure, which includes the substrate and all the attached layers, when a problem occurs during via formation or filling. This increases the overall yield for the entire circuit assembly manufacturing process.
摘要:
A circuitized substrate in which three conductive layers (e.g., electroplated copper foil) are bonded (e.g., laminated) to two dielectric layers. Each of the foil surfaces which physically bond to a respective dielectric layer are smooth (e.g., preferably by chemical processing) and may include a thin, organic layer thereon. One of the conductive layers may function as a ground or voltage (power) plane while the other two may function as signal planes with a plurality of individual signal lines as part thereof. An electrical assembly and an information handling system utilizing such a circuitized substrate are also provided, as is a method of making the substrate.
