Abstract:
A printed wiring board includes a resin insulating layer, a wiring conductor layer embedded in the insulating layer such that the wiring layer has first surface exposed from the insulating layer, and a conductor post formed in the insulating layer and on second surface of the wiring layer on the opposite side with respect to the first surface of the wiring layer such that the conductor post has side surface covered by the insulating layer and end surface exposed from the insulating layer on the opposite side with respect to the wiring layer. The conductor post is formed such that the side surface of the conductor post is a roughened side surface having surface roughness of first roughness R1, the end surface of the conductor post is a roughened end surface having surface roughness of second roughness R2, and the first and second roughnesses R1, R2 satisfy R1>R2.
Abstract:
High-speed interconnects for printed circuit boards and methods for forming the high-speed interconnects are described. A high-speed interconnect may comprise a region of a conductive film having a reduced surface roughness and one or more regions that have been treated for improved bonding with an adjacent insulating layer. Regions of reduced roughness may be used to carry high data rate signals within PCBs. Regions treated for bonding may include a roughened surface, adhesion-promoting chemical treatment, and/or material deposited to improve wettability of the surface and/or adhesion to a cured insulator.
Abstract:
To provide a method for manufacturing a multilayer wiring substrate, in which an insulating layer and a metal foil provided thereon are integrally laminated on an inner layer material having a wiring formed thereon, in which a hole for via hole is formed in the metal foil and the insulating layer, and in which the hole for via hole is filled with an electrolytic filled plating layer after a base electroless plating layer is formed, the method being featured in that, after the base electroless plating layer is formed, first, an electrolysis filled plating layer is formed to the extent that the hole for via hole is not completely filled, and then, after the surface of the electrolytic filled plating layer is etched, the hole for via hole is completely filled by an electrolytic filled plating layer.
Abstract:
A multilayer printed wiring board includes a multilayered structure having conductor circuit layers and interlaminar insulative layers, the interlaminar insulative layers including an outermost interlaminar insulative layer, the conductor circuit layers including an outermost conductor circuit layer formed over the outermost interlaminar insulative, a filled-viahole formed in the outermost interlaminar insulative layer and having one or more metal plating fillings and completely closing a hole formed through the outermost interlaminar insulative layer such that the metal plating of the filled-viahole extends out of the hole and forms a substantially flat surface, and solder bumps including a first solder bump formed on the substantially flat surface of the filled-viahole and a second solder bump formed on a surface portion in the outermost conductor circuit layer. The substantially flat surface of the filled-viahole is leveled substantially at the same height as the surface portion of the outermost conductor circuit layer.
Abstract:
Plating stub resonance in a circuit board may be mitigated by increasing surface roughness of the plating stub conductor. Roughening the plating stub increases its resistance due to the skin effect at higher frequencies, which decreases the quality factor of the transmission line and consequently increases the damping factor, to reduce any resonance that would occur in the plating stub as formed prior to roughening. The surface roughness can be increased in a variety of ways, including chemical processes, by selectively applying a laser beam, or by applying an etch-resistance material in selected locations.

In an embodiment of the present invention, the method of manufacturing a printed circuit board can include: providing a pair of conductive layers, in which roughness of one surface of one of the pair of conductive layers is different from roughness of one surface of the other of the pair of conductive layers; and stacking the pair of the conductive layers on a dielectric layer such that one surface of one of the pair of conductive layers faces one surface of the dielectric layer and one surface of the other of the pair of conductive layers faces another surface of the dielectric layer.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device 100 has such a structure that a semiconductor chip 110 is flip-chip mounted on a wiring board 120. The wiring board 120 has a multilayer structure in which a plurality of wiring layers and a plurality of insulating layers are arranged, and a first electrode pad 130 is formed on a chip mounting side. A taper surface 132 of the first electrode pad 130 has a gradient in an orientation reduced in an upward direction toward a solder connecting side or a chip mounting side. Therefore, a holding force for a force applied to the solder connecting side or the chip mounting side is increased, and furthermore, the taper surface 132 adheres to a tapered internal wall of an insulating layer of a first layer so that a bonding strength to the insulating layer is increased.
