Patent number: 6846375Abstract: The present invention provides a method of manufacturing a low-temperature sintering multilayer ceramic wiring board comprising the steps of: forming a wiring layer by printing conductive paste (4) on an unfired green sheet (1); forming a laminate by laminating, on at least one side of a ceramic substrate, the unfired green sheet having the wiring layer; and firing the laminate. The present invention also provides paste for use with this method. In the firing step, after an adhesive layer (8) or binder resin in said green sheet used for lamination burns, glass ceramic in the green sheet starts to sinter, and upon or after the start of sintering of the glass ceramic, conductive particles in the conductive paste starts to sinter. This manufacturing method can provide an precise wiring board without pattern deformation and also provide a low-temperature ceramic multilayer wiring board that has no cracks in the glass ceramic on the periphery of electrodes and has electrodes of a dense film structure.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2001Date of Patent: January 25, 2005Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masaaki Hayama, Kazuhiro Miura, Akira Hashimoto, Takeo Yasuho

Patent number: 6378424Abstract: A method of fabricating electronic parts is provided which is capable of forming fine patterns with high accuracy as well as easily fabricating a multilayered structure of a conductor pattern with high performance. The disclosed method includes the steps of forming a pattern on a surface of a flexible resin sheet by laser process, and then forming a release layer on the surface of the thus obtained pattern, thereby forming an intaglio plate. Next, the intaglio plate is filled with Ag paste, dried and laminated onto an insulating substrate, on which a thermoplastic resin layer is formed. Thereafter, the intaglio plate is peeled from the substrate so that the pattern of the paste is transferred thereon, and a conductor pattern is formed. Further, an insulating layer is formed to cover the conductor pattern and another conductor pattern is formed on the insulating layer, thereby forming a multilayered structure.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2000Date of Patent: April 30, 2002Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masaaki Hayama, Noboru Mohri, Keiichi Nakao

Patent number: 6374733Abstract: The present invention relates to a manufacturing method of a ceramic substrate used in various electronic appliances, and more particularly to a manufacturing method of a ceramic substrate forming a conductor pattern by intaglio printing. A conductive paste is supplied in the intaglio by using any one of screen mask, metal mask, or drawing device, and therefore the conductive paste can be supplied uniformly in desired positions only. The supplying amount of the conductive paste can be adjusted by repeating printing, so that an optimum amount can be set depending on the pattern. As a result, a fine wiring pattern of thick film can be easily formed, and a ceramic circuit board low in wiring resistance, high in wiring density, and high in dimensional precision of wiring pattern can be obtained.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2000Date of Patent: April 23, 2002Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masaaki Hayama, Noboru Mouri, Hayami Matsunaga, Masayuki Mizuno, Eiji Kawamoto, Yuji Yagi
