  • Patent number: 8863378
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a wiring board including, as steps executed in written order: a sub-core accommodation step of accommodating the ceramic sub-core in the sub-core accommodation space through the first-major-surface-side opening of the sub-core accommodation space; and a film formation and charging step of forming a lowest resin insulating layer of the first-major-surface-side wiring laminate by sticking a resin material to the core body and the ceramic sub-core from the first major surface side, and forming a groove-filling portion that is continuous with the lowest resin insulating layer by charging the resin material into a gap between the core body and the ceramic sub-core.

  • Patent number: 7973245
    Abstract: An intermediate board has a board core formed by a main core body and a sub-core portion. The main core body has a plate-like shape and includes an open sub-core housing portion in which the sub-core portion is housed. A first terminal array of the board core has an area that overlaps an orthogonal projection of the sub-core portion. The latter incorporates a laminated ceramic capacitor formed by first and second conductor layers with a ceramic (dielectric) layer therebetween. The first layer is connected to first and second side terminals of a first type while the second layer is connected to first and second side terminals of a second type. The housing portion has an inner edge which, in cross section, is of a quadrate shape, and a radius portion is formed at each corner having a dimension of between 0.1 and 2 mm.
