Abstract: A method for manufacturing a metal base laminate includes the steps of providing a metal board having a first through-hole; forming a stack-up structure on at least one side of the metal board, wherein a resin film layer, a prepreg layer, and a metal foil layer are disposed in sequence on a metal board-bordered side of the stack-up structure; and laminating the metal board and the stack-up structure together. The method is effective in enhancing mechanical strength, reducing voids which might otherwise be left in through-holes not fully filled in a conventional via filling process, and further enhancing the processing characteristics of the metal base laminate thus manufactured, by using a prepreg and a resin film concurrently as an insulating material. A metal base laminate manufactured by the method is further introduced.
