Abstract

Abstract A method for producing a multilayer printed wiring board by the buildup process. A first layer printed wiring pattern (13) is formed on a metal core (11) over a first insulating laminate (12), and second layer printed wiring pattern (16) is formed on the first layer printed wiring pattern over through studs (15) and a second insulating laminate (14). The surface of the first layer printed wiring pattern (13) is roughened and the through studs (15) are formed by the buildup process using a conductive paste on the roughened surface.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim 201 words
A method for producing a multilayer printed wiring board comprising the following steps: (a) forming a first layer of printed wiring pattern by a subtractive process on a metal foil layer of a metal foil-clad insulated metal core comprising a metal foil having at least one surface thereof roughened such that an average value of differences in height between peaks and valleys thereof is at least 1 μm and a metal core to which said metal foil is bonded through a first insulating laminate, with said roughened surface serving as a nonbonding surface; (b) curing a resin-type conductive paste to form a plurality of through studs for current flow between said first layer of printed wiring pattern and a second layer of printed wiring pattern to be formed next and forming a second insulating laminate for providing insulation spaces of said first layer of printeed wiring pattern and between said first and second layers of printed wiring patterns; and (c) forming said second layer of printed wiring pattern by screen printing a resin-type conductive paste in a desired pattern on the surface of said through studs and said second insulating laminate, curing said conductive paste and applying an electrodeless plating thereto.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 201 words
A method for producing a multilayer printed wiring board comprising the following steps: (a) forming a first layer of printed wiring pattern by a subtractive process on a metal foil layer of a metal foil-clad insulated metal core comprising a metal foil having at least one surface thereof roughened such that an average value of differences in height between peaks and valleys thereof is at least 1 μm and a metal core to which said metal foil is bonded through a first insulating laminate, with said roughened surface serving as a nonbonding surface; (b) curing a resin-type conductive paste to form a plurality of through studs for current flow between said first layer of printed wiring pattern and a second layer of printed wiring pattern to be formed next and forming a second insulating laminate for providing insulation spaces of said first layer of printeed wiring pattern and between said first and second layers of printed wiring patterns; and (c) forming said second layer of printed wiring pattern by screen printing a resin-type conductive paste in a desired pattern on the surface of said through studs and said second insulating laminate, curing said conductive paste and applying an electrodeless plating thereto.
Claim 3
