Abstract:
The method for producing a wired circuit board including an insulating layer and a conductive pattern provided on the insulating layer includes the steps of the following: a step (1), in which the insulating layer is provided; a step (2), in which a metal thin film is provided on an inclined face of the insulating layer; a step (3), in which a photoresist is provided on the metal thin film; a step (4), in which a photomask is disposed so that in the photoresist, a portion where the conductive pattern is to be provided is shielded from light, and the photoresist is exposed to light through the photomask; a step (5), in which the portion of the photoresist shielded from light by the photomask is removed to expose the metal thin film corresponding to the portion; and a step (6), in which the conductive pattern is provided on the metal thin film exposed from the photoresist. When exposing the photoresist, reflection is caused by the metal thin film positioned on the inclined face to reduce light projected to the portion.
Abstract:
A suspension board with circuit includes a metal supporting board, a base insulating layer disposed at one side in a thickness direction of the metal supporting board, and a conductor layer disposed at one side in the thickness direction of the base insulating layer and including a connecting terminal electrically connected to a slider. The base insulating layer has a terminal region, when projected in the thickness direction, overlapped with at least the connecting terminal and a circumferential region not overlapped with the terminal region and around the terminal region, and the thickness of the terminal region is thicker than that of the circumferential region.
Abstract:
A wired circuit board includes a first insulating layer, a conductive pattern disposed on the first insulating layer and including a plurality of terminals arranged in parallel to be spaced apart from each other, and a second insulating layer disposed on the first insulating layer so as to cover the conductive pattern. Each of the terminals includes a main body portion and a protruding portion protruding from the main body portion and having a dimension in a parallel arrangement direction of the terminals which is shorter than a dimension of the main body portion thereof. The second insulating layer includes a plurality of end-portion covering portions disposed individually on both end portions of the main body portion in the parallel arrangement direction and exposing a middle portion of the main body portion and the protruding portion.
Abstract:
A suspension board with circuit includes a slider mounting region configured to mount a slider thereon, a pedestal portion provided in the slider mounting region and configured to support the slider, and a dam portion provided in the slider mounting region and configured to prevent an adhesive fixing the slider from flowing out of the slider mounting region. The thickness of the pedestal portion is thicker than that of the dam portion.
Abstract:
Read wiring traces and write wiring traces are formed on an insulating layer that is formed on a support substrate. Connection terminals that are electrically connectable to external circuits are formed at parts of the read wiring traces and write wiring traces on the insulating layer, respectively. Openings are formed in the support substrate so as to partially or entirely surround overlap regions that overlap with the connection terminals and have the same plane shape as the connection terminals. Parts of the insulating layer are exposed in the openings.
Abstract:
First and second laminated structures are respectively formed at one surface and the other surface of an insulating layer. A laminate is formed of the first laminated structure, the insulating layer and the second laminated structure. A heat-assisted wiring trace is included in the first laminated structure, and a support substrate and a connection terminal are included in the second laminated structure. The surface of the connection terminal is exposed at the other surface of the insulating layer. A first portion of the laminate including the connection terminal has a thickness smaller than the thickness of second and third portions of the laminate including portions on both sides of the connection terminal.
