Abstract
Abstract In a multilayer ceramic circuit board comprising a substrate, an insulating layer on the substrate, and a conductive pattern on the insulating layer, an additive of Cr2O3 or MnO2 is added to the insulating layer to reinforce adhesion between the insulating layer and the conductive pattern. Each of the substrate and the insulating layer is manufactured by firing at a temperature between 800 DEG C. and 1000 DEG C., alumina particles and a glass composition comprising an alumina component. When a total amount of alumina in the substrate is equal to or greater than that in the insulating layer, an amount of Cr2O3 or MnO2 is restricted to a range between 0.1% and 10.0% by weight, with a difference between the total amounts of alumina falling within a range between 0% and 30% by weight. When the total amount of alumina in the substrate is smaller than that in the insulating layer, the amounts of Cr2O3 and MnO2 may be between 0.1% and 10.0% by weight and between 0.1% and 15% by weight, respectively. The difference between the total amounts of alumina may be between 0% and 20% by weight.
