Abstract

Abstract Disclosed are an electronic package and electronic package module. The module has a dielectric core with surface circuitization on at least one surface. The dielectric core is a composite having a thermoplastic layer interposed between two separate layers of thermoset adhesive, as epoxy dicyanate adhesive. The thermoplastic layer is preferably a polyimide. The adhesive is preferably an epoxy or dicyanate adhesive, for example a homogeneous film of thermoset resin, or a fiber reinforced thermoset resin, such as a polytetrafluorethylene reinforced epoxy or a glass fiber reinforced adhesive. The use of a thermoplastic polyimide layer interposed between adhesive layers provides a core that is particularly amenable to manufacture as a thin core.
