Abstract:
The invention discloses a printed circuit board compensation processing method for fabricating a BGA despite a small distance between a line and a pad of the BGA. The method includes compensating a pad and/or a line under a predetermined condition, and removing a portion of the pad facing the line by a second predetermined width when the shortest distance between the compensated line and pad is smaller than a first predetermined distance. The invention further discloses a device for performing the method and a PCB fabricated using the method.
Abstract:
A printed circuit board which avoids the melding of closely adjacent solders includes a top surface, a number of electronic elements and a number of solders. The top surface includes a plurality of copper clad areas. Each copper clad area includes a head area and a neck area. The neck area is positioned on same side of the head area. The neck area includes two edges extended from a fringe of the head area and a terminal point. The two edges intersect at the terminal point. The electronic elements are positioned at the head area. Each solder includes a soldering portion and a tip portion. The soldering portion is attached on the head area and surrounds the electronic element. The tip portion is attached on the neck area. A fringe of the solder is same as the fringe of the copper clad area.
Abstract:
One embodiment provides a circuit board having a substrate and an electrode portion which is provided on the substrate. The electrode portion includes: a quadrangular land which is provided on a front surface of the substrate; a solder layer which is laminated on the whole of a front surface of the land; and a pad which is joined to a front surface of the solder layer. When the electrode portion is seen from thereabove, an outer circumferential line of the pad touches each of four sides of the land. Exposed portions where the solder layer is exposed are formed individually at four corners of a front surface of the electrode portion. And, the exposed portions are formed to have the same shape.
Abstract:
A method of making an array of integral terminals on a circuit assembly. The method includes the steps of depositing at least a first liquid dielectric layer on the first surface of a first circuit member, imaged to include a plurality of first recesses corresponding to the array of integral terminals. The selected surfaces of the first recesses are processed to accept electro-less conductive plating deposition. Electro-lessly plating is applied to the selected surfaces of the first recesses to create a plurality of first conductive structures electrically coupled to, and extending generally perpendicular to, the first circuitry layer. Electro-plating is applied to the electro-less plating to substantially first recesses with a conductive material. The steps of depositing, processing, electro-less plating, and electro-plating are repeated to form the integral terminals of a desired shape. The dielectric layers are removed to expose the terminals.

A printed circuit board is disclosed having coextensive electrical connectors and contact pad areas. Areas of the contact pads where the traces and/or vias are located may be etched away to ensure electrical isolation between the traces, vias and contact pads.
Abstract:
A wiring board includes a substrate, pads formed on an electronic-component mounting surface of the substrate, and a resin insulation layer covering the electronic-component mounting surface and having opening portions such that the opening portions are exposing the pads, respectively. The pads include a non-solder mask defined pad having a wiring portion and a non-solder mask defined pad having no wiring portion, and the opening portions are formed such that the non-solder mask defined pads have exposed conductor areas which have substantially same areas inside the opening portions.
Abstract:
A chip assembly includes a PCB, a connecting pad fixed on the PCB, and a chip. The connecting pad defines a through hole. The chip is received in the through hole and fixed on the PCB by an adhesive distributed in the through hole. A thickness of the adhesive is less than that of the connecting pad.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a wiring board unit, the wiring board unit including a semiconductor package that includes a memory chip, a wiring board on which the semiconductor package is mounted, and an insertion base inserted between the wiring board and the semiconductor package, the method includes: forming a plurality of connection portion groups in a base material, the connection portion groups each including a plurality of connection portions that each electrically connect a board-side pad of the wiring board and an external terminal of the semiconductor package to each other; forming the insertion base such that resistances of the connection portions included in the connection portion groups are adjusted in accordance with types of target memory chips; and connecting the external terminals and the board-side pads to one another by using the connection portion group selected in accordance with the type of the memory chip.
Abstract:
Attachment structures for electrically coupling a microelectronic package to a microelectronic board/interposer including joint pads formed on the microelectronic board/interposer which provide a gap between respective openings in a solder resist layer of the microelectronic substrate and each of the joint pads. Such attachment structures may reduce or substantially eliminate contact between a solder interconnect and a solder resist layer of the microelectronic board/interposer, which may, in turn, reduce or substantially eliminate the potential of crack initiation and propagation at contact areas between the solder interconnect and a solder resist layer of the microelectronic board/interposer due to stresses induced by a mismatch of thermal expansion between the microelectronic package and the microelectronic board/interposer during thermal cycling. Further, the connection area between the pad and outside circuitry may be maximized, so that the impact to electrical performance due to the pad design may be minimized.
Abstract:
A solder resist and a central pad to which a central Au bump provided on a semiconductor chip is flip-chip bonded are formed on a substrate main body. In a flip-chip mounting substrate where an underfill resin is provided after the semiconductor chip is mounted, a central opening portion for exposing the central pad is formed in the solder resist, and also, an edge portion forming the central opening portion of the solder resist is partially overlapped with the outer peripheral portion of the central pad.
