Abstract: A wiring board construction includes at least one microvia disposed in a base substrate and includes a deep imprinted cup shaped recess in the top surface thereof. A conductor material is disposed within the recess, and has a portion disposed at the bottom thereof. A conductor disposed at a bottom surface of the substrate opposite to the conductor material bottom portion helps to complete an electrically conductor path through the substrate to help complete an electrically conductive path through the substrate.

Abstract: A punch has a planar surface and raised portions extending from the planar surface. First ones of the raised portions may have a height of approximately 3-25 mils. Second ones of the raised portions may have a greater depth than the first raised portions. The punch may be heated and/applied to the planar surface of a substrate which may also be pre-heated and which has properties of becoming deformed when subjected to heat and pressure. The punch produces cavities and grooves in the substrate at the positions of the raised portions. Electrical components may be disposed in the cavities in the substrate and an electrically conductive material may be disposed in the grooves to communicate with the electrical components. The raised portions in the punch may be provided by printed circuit techniques or by matching or by laser techniques. Alternatively, a foil may be disposed on the planar surface of the punch and the raised portions of the punch.
