Patent number: 6820331Abstract: It is possible to obtain a clean high-quality circuit board by removing affected material and foreign matter produced when a hole is formed. A manufacturing method of the circuit board includes (a) preparing a film-coated board material by bonding a film material as a mask to a board material, (b) forming a hole in the film-coated board material by applying a laser beam thereto, and (c) selectively removing the unnecessary material sticking to the film-coated board material from the film-coated board material by supersonic cleaning without peeling the film material off the board material. Unnecessary material such as foreign matter is produced when the hole is formed, and the unnecessary material sticks to the board material. After removal of such unnecessary material, a conductive material is disposed in the hole, using the film material as a mask, and the film material is later removed from the board material.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2000Date of Patent: November 23, 2004Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kunio Kishimoto, Toshihiro Nishii, Toshiaki Takenaka, Shinji Nakamura, Akihiro Miura

Patent number: 6776090Abstract: A circuit board with high quality is provided by preventing the falling of paste which comes around to the squeegee complementary angle side during the pattern printing or paste filling by the squeegeeing method. While lowering, the squeegee is passed through the inclined portion of a paste removing section (3) provided on a mask (2) before pattern printing or paste filling, whereby the paste on the non-printing side (complementary angle) of the squeegee can be removed; thus, a circuit board superior in quality is obtained.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2002Date of Patent: August 17, 2004Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiaki Takenaka, Toshikazu Kondo, Mitsunori Maeda, Hiroshi Tahara, Shinji Nakamura, Yuichiro Sugita

Patent number: 6694612Abstract: A mask film includes a base material, a parting layer and a non-parting portion placed on the base material. Accordingly, an optimum adhesion strength of the mask film and a prepreg sheet can be maintained, and peeling between the mask film and prepreg sheet can be prevented. Further, by preventing the fusing adhesion between the mask film and prepreg sheet due to heat generated when forming penetration holes, a circuit board having an excellent quality is obtained.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2000Date of Patent: February 24, 2004Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiaki Takenaka, Toshikazu Kondo, Kunio Kishimoto, Shinji Nakamura, Fumio Echigo

Patent number: 6528733Abstract: An inner layer circuit board with a convex inner layer circuit pattern having a predetermined thickness, a prepreg sheet having conductive material disposed in a plurality of through-holes and metallic foil are laminated to a substrate, and the laminated board is heated under pressures. After that, a laminated circuit pattern is formed by machining the metallic foil. In such multi-layer circuit board, a smoothing layer is disposed on a concave portion where no inner layer circuit pattern of the inner layer circuit board is formed. In this way, the conductive materials disposed in a plurality of through-holes are uniformly compressed. As a result, the connection resistance between the inner circuit pattern and the laminated circuit pattern becomes stabilized.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2001Date of Patent: March 4, 2003Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiaki Takenaka, Toshihiro Nishii, Shigeru Yamane, Shinji Nakamura, Hideaki Komoda, Kunio Kishimoto

Publication number: 20020170876Abstract: A method of manufacturing a PCB comprising the steps of: forming through-holes in a substrate having releasing layers on front and back faces; filling conductive paste in the through-holes; removing the releasing layers and disposing metal foil on both faces of the substrate; and heat pressing them. A diameter of the through-holes is larger than that of corresponding holes formed on the releasing layers. According to the present invention, when the conductive paste is compressed, conductive paste protruding from the surface of the substrate is trapped at the edges of the through-holes. This configuration prevents short circuits with undesirable wiring patterns. So, an enough amount of the conductive paste can protrude from the surface of the substrate. Therefore, after the compression, stable electric connections inside the conductive paste and between the conductive paste and the metal foils are ensured, thus PCBs with superior reliability can be produced.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2002Publication date: November 21, 2002Inventors: Eiji Kawamoto, Shigeru Yamane, Toshiaki Takenaka, Toshihiro Nishii
