Abstract: A method of through-plating a circuit board having conductors formed on two sides. At least two holes are filled under compression pressure with a sintering paste. Subsequently, the sintering paste is dried and fired to form a cohesive bond with the ceramic substrate and fill the holes. Simultaneous filling of multiple holes having different hole diameters is accomplished using a printing screen with screen holes of different diameters. A single print parameter set is used. The printing screen here has at least one screen hole for filling a hole larger than the reference hole. The screen hole has an area-reducing and area-dividing geometry that divides the screen hole into at least two hole sections.

Abstract: A printing screen for use through-plating a printed circuit board. The printing screen has at least one screen hole for filling a larger hole compared to a reference hole in a ceramic substrate. This printing screen has an area-reducing and area-dividing geometry that divides the screen hole into at least two hole sections.

Abstract: A printed circuit board, preferably for use in a fuel fill-level sensor and in a fuel fill-level measuring system, having conductor tracks formed on two sides of a ceramic substrate. The ceramic substrate has at least one metalized hole for through-contacting that connects the conductor tracks to one another. The hole of the sintered ceramic substrate is filled with a metal-containing sintering paste, which is introduced under pressure. In the fully sintered state, the paste enters into at least one integral bond with the ceramic substrate and completely fills the hole in so doing.

Abstract: A device and a method for detecting seat occupancy, with the device including first and second sensor elements associated with a respective seat surface. First and second weight-dependent sensor signals are electrically obtainable from the sensor elements. The seat occupancy is determined by taking either the first or the second sensor signals in dependence on an ambient temperature.

Abstract: The invention relates to a packaging for semiconductor components such as FBGA packages in BOC technology or the like, wherein at least the back and the lateral edges of a chip (2) mounted on a substrate are enclosed by a mold coating (6), the casting compound used for the mold coating (6) being linked with the substrate and forming an integrated whole therewith. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a packaging for semiconductor components. The aim of the invention is to provide a packaging for semiconductor components which is characterized by reduced thermomechanical stress and at the same time a substantially improved adhesion of the mold coating to the substrate, thereby allowing for a higher package load.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a protection for the chip edges of electronic components that are not provided with a housing, according to which semiconductor chips provided with a laterally open bonding channel are mounted on a substrate with a tape interposed between. The invention further relates to a system for protecting chip edges.
