Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention relates to a manufacturing method of a printed circuit board, particularly, relates to a manufacturing method of filling up appropriately a blind hole formed on a printed circuit board with insulative resin.

[0003] 2. Description of the Related Art

[0004] Presently, a printed circuit board is demanded to have high packing density in accordance with development of minimizing electronic apparatuses and equipment. A multilayer printed circuit board having multilayer of wiring boards has been realized for the purpose of satisfying the demand therefor. Each wiring board of each layer is electrically and mechanically connected to each other by way of a through hole and a blind hole (or referred to a non-through hole). A blind hole is filled up with insulative resin or conductive resin in accordance with usage of the blind hole, and the resin is hardened.

[0005] In a process of manufacturing a multilayer printed circuit board, it is demanded that resin shall be filled up efficiently and securely in a blind hole.

[0006] Various kinds of examinations have been performed for the purpose of filling a blind hole with resin efficiently and securely. The Japanese Patent Laid-open Publication No. 7-249866/1995, for example, discloses a method of filling a through hole or a blind hole provided on a substrate with hardening paste. According to the method, the filling process is completed by supplying vibration to the hardening paste, which has been temporarily filled up in a through hole or a blind hole provided on a substrate by printing process.

[0007] The other Japanese Patent Laid-open Publication No. 9-232758/1997 discloses another filling method. According to the filling method, while manufacturing a wiring board having a blind hole by way of a process of filling up the blind hole with insulative resin in conjunction with coating the insulative resin on the surface of the wiring board, the blind hole is filled up with the insulative resin by coating the insulative resin after the inner circumference of the blind hole has been moistened with a solvent.

[0008] Each method mentioned above is an excellent method for filling up a blind hole with insulative resin. However, these methods can not sufficiently remove a bubble possibly remaining in the resin filled up.

[0009] FIG. 4 typically shows a bubble 20 generating in a blind hole 6 of a printed circuit board. In FIG. 4, the blind hole 6 is formed in a resin layer 3, which is coated on a substrate 1 and hardened. The bubble 20 may generate in a resin 7 by chance, while the resin 7 has been filled up in the blind hole 6 and hardened.

[0010] As mentioned above, if a bubble remains in insulative resin after the insulative resin has been filled up in a blind hole and hardened by heating, the bubble expands and causes a problem that the resin 7 easily swells when the printed circuit board is exposed to high temperature such as a soldering process thereafter. The same problem occurs if the blind hole is not sufficiently filled up with the resin.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0011] Accordingly, in consideration of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, an object of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing method of a printed circuit board, which can effectively and securely fill up a blind hole with insulative resin and suppress a bubble generating in the insulative resin as well.

[0012] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides, according to an aspect thereof, a manufacturing method of a printed circuit board, which comprises steps of coating insulative resin on a surface of a printed circuit board having a blind hole, filling up the insulative resin in the blind hole, keeping the printed circuit board coated with the insulative resin in a low pressure atmosphere of 1.3 to 666 hPa and hardening the insulative resin, wherein the blind hole is filled up with the insulative resin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0024] Prior to describing details of the preferred embodiments, each step of a manufacturing method of a printed circuit board, which is common to all the preferred embodiments of the present invention, is depicted first.

[0025] A manufacturing method of a printed circuit board composed of more than 2 insulative resin layers produced by a buildup method is depicted first with referring to an example of 2 layer printed circuit board of single side. FIGS. 1(a) through 1(g) show a manufacturing method of a multilayer printed circuit board produced by the buildup method step by step.

[0026] At first, as shown in FIG. 1(a), circuit patterns 2a and 2b having a predetermined width are formed on a substrate 1, which is a copper overlaid laminate or is made by plating conductive material such as copper over the substrate in a predetermined thickness.

[0027] Next, as shown in FIG. 1(b), insulative resin is coated over the surface of the substrate 1 having circuit patterns 2a and 2b in a predetermined thickness and hardened, and then a first insulative resin layer 3 is formed. The insulative resin is coated once or a plurality of times in accordance with required thickness and characteristic of the insulative resin.

[0028] Apart of the circuit pattern 2a is exposed by removing a part of the first insulative resin layer 3 at a predetermined position above the circuit pattern 2a, as shown in FIG. 1(c), by the photolithographic method, a plasma treatment or a laser processing. Accordingly, a first blind hole 4 is formed.

[0029] Conductive circuit patterns 5a and 5b of predetermined shapes are formed on the first insulative resin layer 3, as shown in FIG. 1(d), by forming conductive material such as copper on the first insulative resin layer 3 with a plating method. The inner wall of the first blind hole 4 is covered with the conductive circuit pattern 5a, and then a new first blind hole 6 is formed.

[0030] A second insulative resin layer 7 is formed over the first insulative resin layer 3 and the conductive circuit patterns 5a and 5b, as shown in FIG. 1(e), by coating insulative resin over the conductive circuit patterns 5a and 5b on the first insulative layer 3 in a predetermined thickness, and then the insulative resin is hardened. The insulative resin is coated once or a plurality of times in accordance with required thickness and characteristic of the insulative resin.

[0031] Apart of the circuit pattern 2b is exposed by removing a part of the first and second insulative resin layers 3 and 7 at a predetermined position above the circuit pattern 2b, as shown in FIG. 1(f), by the photolithographic method, the plasma treatment or the laser processing. Accordingly, a second blind hole 8 is formed. A part of the conductive circuit pattern 5b is also exposed by removing a part of the second insulative resin layer 7 at a predetermined position above the conductive circuit pattern 5b by the photolithographic method, the plasma treatment or the laser processing. Accordingly, a third blind hole 9 is formed.

[0032] A conductive circuit pattern 10 of predetermined shape is formed on the second insulative resin layer 7, as shown in FIG. 1(g), by forming conductive material such as copper on the second insulative resin layer 7 and the inner walls of the second and third blind holes 8 and 9 with a plating method. The inner walls of the second and third blind holes 8 and 9 are covered with the conductive circuit pattern 10, and then a new second and third blind holes 11 and 12 are formed. The conductive circuit patterns 2b and 5b are electrically connected each other through the conductive circuit pattern 10.

[0033] Finally, a protective layer not shown is formed over the conductive circuit pattern 10 and the second insulative resin layer 7, and then a 2 layer printed circuit board of single side is produced.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 1(e), the second insulative resin layer 7 is formed over the first insulative resin layer 3 by coating the insulative resin over the first insulative resin layer 3 and the conductive circuit patterns 5a and 5b. The coated insulative resin also fills up the new first blind hole 6. A bubble, which is explained in the prior art with referring to FIG. 4, may generate while hardening the coated insulative resin.

[0035] A most suitable condition of generating no bubble has been found after various kinds of experimental studies. The condition is that a printed circuit board having blind holes on the surface is kept in a low pressure atmosphere after insulative resin has been coated on the printed circuit board and the insulative resin is hardened thereafter. Further, a noticeable dent may generate on a surface of insulative resin filled up in a blind hole if a viscosity of the insulative resin is out of a specific range, although a printed circuit board is kept in a low pressure atmosphere and a bubble does not generate. Accordingly, it is found that the most suitable condition for obtaining a best result is controlling to keep a viscosity of insulative resin within a predetermined range while keeping the insulative resin in a low pressure atmosphere.

[0036] After insulative resin has been coated over a surface of an insulative resin layer having a blind hole formed on a printed circuit board, a bubble does not generate in the blind hole if the printed circuit board is placed in a vacuum chamber with keeping a low atmospheric pressure of suitably 1.3 to 666 hPa (hectoPascal), more suitably 40 to 400 hPa, and then the insulative resin is hardened by a predetermined hardening process. If the atmospheric pressure is less than 1.3 hPa, bumping occurs in the insulative resin and many bubbles generate. On the other hand, if the atmospheric pressure exceeds 666 hPa, a bubble can hardly be deflated.

[0037] FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of a printed circuit board of which a blind hole 6 is filled up with insulative resin, and the insulative resin is hardened according to the embodiment of the present invention. It is preferable for a printed circuit board that a depth d1 of a dent 21 shall be shallow and more preferably be within a range of 0 to 5 &mgr;m. A shallower dent prevents a growth of defect such as open-circuit or short-circuit while forming a conductive circuit pattern across the dent.

[0038] Further, a blind hole is sufficiently filled up with insulative resin and a bubble does not generate in the blind hole if a printed circuit board is placed in a vacuum chamber with keeping a low atmospheric pressure of suitably 1.3 to 666 hPa, more suitably 40 to 400 hPa and the insulative resin is hardened by a predetermined hardening process, after the insulative resin having a viscosity of 0.1 to 15 Pa·s (Pascal-second) has been coated over a surface of a insulative resin layer having the blind hole, which is formed on the printed circuit board.

[0039] FIG. 3 shows a sectional view of a printed circuit board when high-viscosity resin has been filled up in a blind hole according to a comparative example of the present invention. FIG. 3 typically shows a case that a viscosity of insulative resin to be coated is high. If the viscosity exceeds 25 Pa·s, a depth d2 of the dent 21 extends to 10 &mgr;m, in a case that a thickness of the insulative resin layer 3 is approximately 30 &mgr;m. A deep dent is not suitable for forming a conductive circuit patter. If the viscosity is less than 0.1 Pa·s, it is hard to coat the insulative resin stably or securely.

[0040] [Embodiment 1]

[0041] As shown in each drawing of FIGS. 1(a) through 1(g), a copper layer having a thickness of approximately 5 &mgr;m is formed on a surface of a glass based epoxy substrate 1 by a plating method. Predetermined conductive circuit patterns 2a and 2b are formed by the photolithographic method as shown in FIG. 1(a). Epoxy resin is coated over the substrate 1 and the conductive circuit patterns 2a and 2b with the curtain coat method or the splay coat method and hardened by heating, and then an epoxy resin layer 3 having a thickness of approximately 30 &mgr;m is obtained as shown in FIG. 1(b). The blind hole 4 having a diameter of approximately 5 &mgr;m is formed on the epoxy resin layer 3 at a predetermined position of the conductive circuit pattern 2a by using a carbon dioxide laser as shown in FIG. 1(c).

[0042] Next, a copper layer having a thickness of approximately 5 &mgr;m is formed over the epoxy resin layer 3 and the blind hole 4 with the plating method, and then a predetermined conductive circuit patterns 5a and 5b are formed by the photolithographic method as shown in FIG. 1(d).

[0043] As shown in FIG. 1(e), epoxy resin of which viscosity is adjusted to approximately 0.5 Pa·s by being diluted with organic solvent such as propylene glycol mono-methyl ether acetate (PGMAC) is coated over the epoxy resin layer 3 and the conductive circuit patterns 5a and 5b by the curtain coat method or the splay coat method. The substrate 1 with 2 layers of insulative resin is placed in a vacuum chamber after coating and an atmospheric pressure is reduced to 666 hPa.
