  • Publication number: 20120125680
    Abstract: An opening is formed in resin 20 by a laser beam so that a via hole is formed. At this time, copper foil 22, the thickness of which is reduced (to 3 ?m) by performing etching to lower the thermal conductivity is used as a conformal mask. Therefore, an opening 20a can be formed in the resin 20 if the number of irradiation of pulse-shape laser beam is reduced. Therefore, occurrence of undercut of the resin 20 which forms an interlayer insulating resin layer can be prevented. Thus, the reliability of the connection of the via holes can be prevented. Thus, the reliability of the connection of the via holes can be improved.

  • Patent number: 7873263
    Abstract: A time zone start time point calculating unit calculates a time zone to be set in a VOBU in accordance with audio bit rate. A time zone comparing unit compares a time point at which an audio pack is to be multiplexed with the time zone calculated by the time zone start time point calculating unit. A flag setting unit sets whether the audio pack is to be completed or not in accordance with the result of comparison by the time zone comparing unit. Therefore, a completing process takes place before a VOBU boundary, and a completed PCK will not be generated immediately after the VOBU boundary. Thus, generation of a buffer overflow can be prevented.

  • Patent number: RE40947
    Abstract: A multilayer printed wiring board is composed of a substrate provided with through-holes, and a wiring board formed on the substrate through the interposition of an interlaminar insulating resin layer, the through-holes having a roughened internal surface and being filled with a filler, an exposed part of the filler in the through-holes being covered with a through-hole-covering conductor layer, and a viahole formed just thereabove being connected to the through-hole-covering conductor layer. Without peeling between the through-holes and the filler, this wiring board has a satisfactory connection reliability between the through-holes and the internal layer circuit and provides a high density wiring.
