Abstract: To provide more space for additional circuit elements (coils, capacitors) and/or to allow the accommodation of additional circuit elements required for shielding the circuits, the metallization regions are arranged one over the other in at least two metallization layers. The carrier body has a surface on which sintered metallization regions are arranged in a first metallization layer, said metallization regions carrying electronic components and/or being structured such that the metallization regions form resistors or coils. The metallization regions are covered, together with the components and/or the resistors or coils, by a ceramic plate, and optionally additional metallization regions are arranged in additional metallization layers on the ceramic plate and each metallization region is covered by a ceramic plate. Sintered metallization regions are arranged in a metallization layer for the purpose of accommodating circuit elements on the uppermost ceramic plate facing away from the cooling elements.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a substrate comprising embedded conductive metal structures or metallizations, in particular for use as printed circuit boards. The aim of the invention is to allow the buried metallization of three-dimensional, i.e. curved or angular, substrates in addition to the two-dimensional flat and level, i.e. plate-shaped, substrates. According to the invention, this is achieved in that trenches and/or recesses are dug into the substrate using laser technology, and the metal structures are then produced in the trenches and/or recesses.
