Abstract:
A circuit board has a low thermal expansion coefficient that suits the thermal expansion coefficient of an element to be mounted thereupon and can prevent the occurrence of delamination and cracking of a core layer when the circuit board is used in a low temperature environment. The circuit board is constructed by laminating a core layer and at least one wiring layer, where the at least one wiring layer has slightly smaller external dimensions in a planar direction than the core layer.

A miniature PWB with features that incorporate the required circuitry changes and component footprints, which has been enhanced with micro-castellations such as those found on ceramic surface mount packages. The miniature PWB is mounted on the circuit board using techniques well known in the art. This combination of technologies provides an adaptable, durable interconnect methodology, which allows for circuit and part changes without changing the layout of the base printed wiring board.

Abstract:
In a flexible laminate containing a metal foil layer/a thermoplastic polyimide layer or/and a conductor circuit layer/a thermoplastic polyimide layer, the metal foil layer or the conductor circuit layer is bonded to at least one side of the thermoplastic polyimide layer. The thermoplastic polyimide layer is formed from a thermoplastic polyimide resin film or sheet produced by melt extrusion of a thermoplastic polyimide resin. Alternatively, the thermoplastic polyimide layer is formed from a biaxially oriented thermoplastic polyimide resin film or sheet. Such a flexible laminate can be easily manufactured by a lamination method which comprises bonding a thermoplastic polyimide resin film (1) to a metal foil (2) or a conductive circuit layer (4) by heating under pressure, and has excellent heat resistance, electrical properties and mechanical strength inherent in a polyimide. When the biaxially oriented thermoplastic polyimide resin film or sheet is used, the flexible laminate can be improved in dimensional stability and resistance to soldering heat.

According to one aspect of the invention, an electronic assembly is provided. The electronic assembly includes a first substrate having an integrated circuit formed therein and a second substrate. The first and second substrates are interconnected by a plurality of bi-material interconnects that are electrically connected to the integrated circuit and have a first component comprising a conductive first material with a first coefficient of thermal expansion and a second component comprising a second material with a second coefficient of thermal expansion. The first and second components are connected and shaped such that when the temperature of the bi-material interconnects changes the interconnects each bend towards the first or second component. When the temperature of the second substrate increases, the second substrate expands away from a central portion thereof. The bi-material interconnects are arranged such that the bi-material interconnects bend away from the central portion of the second substrate.
