Abstract
Abstract A method of manufacturing a circuit board, comprising the steps of providing an electric conductor on one surface of a substrate made of flexible synthetic resin and selectively irradiating a laser beam onto the substrate from the other surface of the substrate so as to sublimate a portion of the substrate such that an opening is formed on the substrate, with the electric conductor traversing the opening.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
110 words
A method of manufacturing a circuit board mounted with an LSI chip, comprising the steps of: providing an electric conductor on one surface of an electrically insulating substrate made of flexible synthetic resin; selectively irradiating onto the other surface of the substrate a laser beam having a temperature for sublimating at least the substrate so as to form an opening on the substrate; providing the LSI chip on the one surface of the substrate at a location corresponding to the opening and the electric conductor; and electrically connecting the LSI chip and the electric conductor by using an ultrasonic head from the other surface of the substrate through the opening.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
110 words
A method of manufacturing a circuit board mounted with an LSI chip, comprising the steps of: providing an electric conductor on one surface of an electrically insulating substrate made of flexible synthetic resin; selectively irradiating onto the other surface of the substrate a laser beam having a temperature for sublimating at least the substrate so as to form an opening on the substrate; providing the LSI chip on the one surface of the substrate at a location corresponding to the opening and the electric conductor; and electrically connecting the LSI chip and the electric conductor by using an ultrasonic head from the other surface of the substrate through the opening.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
60 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, including, in the step of irradiating with the laser beam, disposing first and second jig masks on opposite sides of the substrate and the electric conductor to prevent another portion of the substrate than the opening from being heated by the laser beam and to secure the substrate and the electric conductor immovably.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
49 words
A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein in the step of irradiating includes blowing a gas comprised of either nitrogen or argon over the substrate so as to facilitate removal of the sublimated portion of the substrate and cool the opening and a peripheral portion of the opening.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
A method as claimed in claim 3 including blowing a gas over the electric conductor of a type for preventing oxidation of the electric conductor.
