  • Patent number: 6492008
    Abstract: The thermal expansion coefficient of a composite insulator layer is adjusted in order to suppress warping deformation in a multilayer printed wiring board caused by temperature change. The thicknesses and the covering ratios on the both sides of the electric conductor layer composing the multilayer printed wiring board are asymmetric with respect to the central plane. A multilayer printed wiring board is formed by laminating composite insulation layers and laminated bodies, the composite insulation layer being made of a cloth a resin impregnated into the cloth, the laminated body being composed of electric conductor layers formed by coating on a surface of the composite insulation layer. The thermal expansion coefficient of the composite insulation layer having a conductor layer with a higher covering ratio is set to be smaller than the thermal expansion coefficient of the composite insulation layer having a conductor layer with a lower covering ratio.
