Abstract:
A wiring layer for serving as a first electrode layer of a capacitor portion patterned in a predetermined shape on an insulative base member is formed. A resin layer for serving as a dielectric layer of the capacitor portion is formed on a surface of the wiring layer using an electrophoretic process. Another wiring layer for serving as a second electrode layer of the capacitor portion patterned in a predetermined shape by patterning on the insulative base member inclusive of the resin layer is formed.
Abstract:
In a printed wiring board, capacitors have electrode layers that may be selectively trimmed to obtain high tolerances. The electrode layers can be formed from a plurality of elongated electrode portions, each of which can be selectively trimmed. The electrode layers can also be formed from interdigitated elongated electrode portions.
Abstract:
A voltage variable material (“VVM”) including an insulative binder that is formulated to intrinsically adhere to conductive and non-conductive surfaces is provided. The binder and thus the VVM is self-curable and applicable in a spreadable form that dries before use. The binder eliminates the need to place the VVM in a separate device or to provide separate printed circuit board pads on which to electrically connect the VVM. The binder and thus the VVM can be directly applied to many different types of substrates, such as a rigid FR-4 laminate, a polyimide, a polymer or a multilayer PCB via a process such as screen or stencil printing. In one embodiment, the VVM includes two types of conductive particles, one with a core and one without a core. The VVM can also have core-shell type semiconductive particles.

Abstract:
After a resistor and/or a capacitor are simultaneously fired on a fired ceramic core substrate to be fired, the fired resistor and/or the fired capacitor is trimmed so that the resistance and the capacitance are adjusted. Thereafter, an after-lamination green sheet is laminated onto the ceramic core substrate and the produced after-lamination substrate is fired at a temperature which is lower than the sintering temperature of the resistor and the dielectric. Thus, the sintered resistor and dielectric can be prevented from being softened and melted when the after-lamination substrate is fired. Moreover, the resistance and the capacitance accurately adjusted by trimming before the after-lamination substrate is fired are not changed by the firing.

Abstract:
A process for forming stable integrated resistors (14) and capacitors (28) on organic substrates (12). The resistors (14) and capacitors (28) are capable of a wide range of resistance and capacitance values, yet can be processed in a manner that does not detrimentally effect the organic substrate (12) or entail complicated processing. The method generally entails the use of thick-film materials usually of the types used to form resistors and capacitors on ceramic substrates. The thick-film materials are applied to an electrically-conductive foil (20) and then heated to bond the thick-film material to the foil (20) and form a solid resistive or capacitive mass (16/30). The foil (20) is then laminated to an organic substrate (12), such that the resistive/capacitive mass (16/30) is attached to and preferably embedded in the organic substrate (12). Finally, the foil (20) is etched to form at least one of two terminals that contact the resistive/capacitive mass (16/30) and thereby complete the passive electrical component (14/28). Resistors (14) can also be formed of polymer thick-film (PTF) inks, in which case the PTF ink is cured on the foil (20) for an extended period at a temperature sufficient to completely cure the ink prior to laminating the foil (20) to the organic substrate (12).
