Abstract: A modular plating line with a molded plastic tank and collection sump. Process fluids can be circulated through the plastic tank, collection sump, and at least one fluid delivery system positioned in the molded plastic tank. The collection sump can contain auxiliary equipment such as heating units, cooling units, dousing units, or agitation units. The molded plastic tank can be easily replaced when maintenance is required.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method of preparing a high density interconnect printed circuit board (HDI PCB) including microvias filled with copper comprising the steps of: a1) providing a multi-layer substrate comprising (i) a stack assembly of an electrically conductive interlayer embedded between two insulating layers, (ii) a cover layer, and (iii) a microvia extending from the peripheral surface and ending on the conductive interlayer; b1) depositing a conductive layer; or a2) providing a multi-layer substrate comprising (i) a stack assembly of an electrically conductive interlayer embedded between two insulating layers, (ii) a microvia extending from the peripheral surface and ending on the conductive interlayer; b2) depositing a conductive layer; and c) electrodepositing a copper filling in the microvia and a first copper layer on the conductive layer which form together a planar surface and the thickness of the first copper layer is from 0.1 to 3 ?m.
