Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a multilayer printed wiring board includes forming a first interlaminar resin insulating layer, a first conductor circuit on the first interlaminar resin insulating layer, a second interlaminar resin insulating layer, opening portions in the second interlaminar resin insulating layer to expose a face of the first conductor circuit, an electroless plating film on the second interlaminar resin insulating layer and the exposed face, and a plating resist on the electroless plating film. The method further includes substituting the electroless plating film with a thin film conductor layer, having a lower ion tendency than the electroless plating film, and a metal of the exposed face, forming an electroplating film including the metal on a portion of the electroless plating film and the thin film conductor layer, stripping the plating resist, and removing the electroless plating film exposed by the stripping.

A packaging substrate with conductive structure is provided, including a substrate body having at least one conductive pad on a surface thereof, a stress buffer metal layer disposed on the conductive pad, a solder resist layer disposed on the substrate body and having at least one opening therein for correspondingly exposing a portion of top surface of the stress buffer metal layer, a metal post disposed on a central portion of the surface of the stress buffer metal layer, and a solder bump covering the surfaces of the metal post. Therefore, a highly reliable conductive structure is provided, by using the stress buffer metal layer to release thermal stresses, and using the metal post and the solder bump to increase the height of the conductive structure.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating a circuit board with a conductive structure and the same are proposed. A buffer metal layer is formed on an electrically connecting pad of a circuit layer of a circuit board in advance. A conductive structure is then formed on the buffer metal layer to form the conductive structure of the present invention and is connected to the circuits located in the different layers of the circuit board. The combining strength of the conductive structure and the electrically connecting pad is reinforced by the buffer metal layer as the buffer metal layer has high ductility. The long-term electrical quality and stability are also enhanced.
Abstract:
Printed circuit manufacture may employ a plated palladium-nickel alloy layer as an etch resist and plating finish. Prior to the use of palladium-nickel, tin-lead was used as the etch resist and plating finish. The palladium-nickel layer is generally superior to the corresponding tin-lead layer except for solderability. To improve the solderability of at least these areas of the palladium-nickel to which elements are to be soldered, a layer of copper is deposited thereon. If desired, the solderability of the copper may be preserved by coating it with, for example, a tin-lead layer.

Abstract:
A conductor trace is formed on a base insulating layer. The conductor trace includes two terminal portions and one wiring portion. The wiring portion is formed to connect the two terminal portions to each other and extend from each terminal portion. A metal cover layer is formed to cover the terminal portion and the wiring portion of the conductor trace and continuously extend from a surface of the terminal portion to a surface of the wiring portion. The metal cover layer is made of metal having magnetism lower than magnetism of nickel, and is made of gold, for example. A cover insulating layer is formed on the base insulating layer to cover a portion, of the metal cover layer formed on the conductor trace, covering the wiring portion and not to cover a portion of the metal cover layer covering the terminal portion.

Systems, apparatuses, and/or methods to manufacture and/or implement a sensor film, a composite electrode, and/or a computing device such as a flexible device. The sensor film may include a random network of metal lines and graphene interconnecting the metal lines. The composite electrode may be formed from the sensor film. In addition, the composite electrode may include a first portion including a metal layer in a graphene layer, wherein the metal layer is randomly located in the graphene layer, and a second portion excluding the metal layer and including the graphene layer. The sensor film may be patterned to include any composite electrode configuration, such as an antenna electrode configuration, a touch electrode configuration, and so on. Thus, the flexible device may include a flexible touch screen.
