    Abstract: A printed wiring board has an electromagnetic wave shielding layer. The printed wiring board includes a printed circuit formed on a substrate. Stratified layers of insulation are formed over the printed circuit. The insulation layers are disposed so as to form a bowl-shaped connection region. A terminal may be formed simultaneously with the forming of the electromagnetic wave shielding layer to provide a connection between the electromagnetic shielding layer and the printed circuit. The bowl-shaped connecting region provides for smoothly filling the terminal with a conductor paste without the occurrence of foaming or blurring during, for example, a silk screening printing process.

  • Patent number: 5112648
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a printed circuit board is disclosed. The method comprises steps of providing a substrate for the printed circuit board, forming circuit patterns on one or both sides of the substrate, and shielding the whole or a required part of the circuit patterns by using a shield layer in such a manner that the shield layer and a grounding circuit of the circuit patterns are connected through a resistor. This method of manufacturing a printed circuit board is improved so that adhesion between the shield layer and the junction land of the grounding circuit is enhanced by the joining of the shield layer to the junction land of the grounding circuit through the resistor, and that the noise preventive action of the shield layer is improved by the attenuating of electromagnetic-wave energy received by the shield layer which is to be discharged as electrical current to the grounding circuit.
