  • Patent number: 7754980
    Abstract: A structure with a multilayer plated through hole is disclosed. At least one dielectric layer formed by deposition and a conductive layer are formed in an original plated through hole (PTH). The dielectric layer partially covers wiring layers of the substrate to electrically isolate the PTH and the conductive layer to form a multilayer PTH so as to save PTH occupation space of the substrate. Preferably, the formation of the dielectric layer is electrophoretic deposition to control the deposition thickness in the PTH very even and thin, no drilling is necessary. Accordingly, it can increase electrical performance and decrease cross-talk effect.

  • Patent number: 7748111
    Abstract: A manufacturing process of a carrier is disclosed. First, a first substrate is provided. A circuit layer having a number of contacts is formed on a surface of the first substrate. Then, a solder mask is formed on the circuit layer and exposes the contacts. Next, a second substrate having an opening is bonded to the surface of the first substrate to form a carrier, and the opening exposes the solder mask and the contacts of the first substrate. Since the contacts are located within the opening, a circuit layout space can be increased, and a chip disposed in the opening can be electrically connected to the contacts directly, so as to reduce the thickness of a chip package structure. Besides, the carrier is formed by laminating the first and the second substrates. Hence, the manufacturing process of the carrier is simplified and yield of the carrier is promoted.

    Abstract: A coreless thin substrate with embedded circuits in dielectric layers is provided. The substrate includes a plurality of first patterned dielectric layers with embedded circuits, and at least a second patterned dielectric layer with embedded conducting elements. The second patterned dielectric layer is disposed between the first patterned dielectric layers, such that the embedded conducting elements electrically conduct the circuits of the first patterned dielectric layers through thermal lamination. Thus, a conventional through-hole formation process after the thermal lamination is skipped, and the substrate has a thinner and flatter profile. In one embodiment, the first patterned dielectric layers are inkjet printed layers with negative images. Moreover, the embedded circuits are flush with and exposed from an upper surface and a lower surface of the corresponding first dielectric layers.
