Abstract: A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board having solder balls. The method may include: stacking a second carrier, in which at least one hole is formed, over one side of a first carrier; forming at least one solder bump by filling the hole with a conductive material; forming a circuit pattern layer, which is electrically connected with the solder bump, on the second carrier; and exposing the solder bump by removing the first carrier and the second carrier. Using this method, uniform hemispherical solder balls with fine pitch can be formed as a part of the manufacturing process, without having to attach the solder balls separately. Carriers may be used to serve as supports during the manufacturing process, whereby deformations can be prevented in the board.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of manufacturing a printed circuit board having a landless via hole. Specifically, this invention provides a method of manufacturing a printed circuit board having a landless via hole without the upper land of a via hole using a photoresist (P-LPR) which is loaded in the via hole. Therefore, in this invention, since a circuit pattern is formed using only copper of a copper clad laminate, the width thereof is minimized, thus easily realizing a fine circuit pattern. Further, the landless via hole structure is applied, resulting in a highly dense circuit pattern.

Abstract: A method of forming a surface laminated circuit printed circuit board (SLC) where a photosensitive thermosetting resin in solution is applied atop a circuitized substrate. The method starts with the step of concentrating and solidifying the photosensitive thermosetting resin to build up a hardness therein high enough to withstand abrasion. This is done by first dissolving the photosensitive thermosetting resin in a solvent and then applying the solution to a substantially uneven surface. This is followed by evaporating solvent at a temperature below the curing temperature of the photosensitive thermosetting resin. Next, the surface of said resin layer is abraded to form a substantially even surface, and the resin layer is cured by heating the resin high enough to cross link and polymerize the resin.
