Abstract

Abstract A multilayered ceramic substrate which shrinks only in a thickness direction but does not shrink in a plane direction is produced by forming at least two green sheets each of which comprises a glass-ceramic low-temperature firing substrate material, an organic binder and a plasticizer, forming an electrode pattern with a conductor paste composition on each of the green sheets, laminating the green sheets having the electrode pattern to obtain a laminate, laminating a pair of green sheets each comprising an inorganic material which is not sintered at a sintering temperature of the green sheets of the low-temperature firing substrate material or lower on both surfaces of the laminate, sintering the laminate sandwiched by the green sheets comprising the inorganic material, and removing the unsintered inorganic material or impregnating the inorganic material layers with a resin and forming a top layer wiring pattern thereon.
