A method of forming an isolated electrically conductive contact through a metal substrate by creating at least one via through the substrate. The at least one sidewall of the via is cleaned and coated with a non-conductive layer. In one example, the non-conductive layer is formed by anodizing the sidewall(s) of the via. In another example, the non-conductive layer may be formed by thin film deposition of a dielectric on the sidewall(s). An electrically conductive filler is then placed into the via. In the examples disclosed, the filler may be a conductive ink or a conductive epoxy.

A method of producing a capacitor for a printed circuit board includes producing high-dielectric sheets and selecting ones of the high-dielectric sheets, which are substantially free from a defect after the heat process. Each of the high-dielectric sheets is produced by providing a first electrode, forming a first sputter film on the first electrode, forming an intermediate layer on the first sputter film by calcining a sol-gel film, forming a second sputter film on the intermediate layer, and providing a second electrode on the second sputter film. The high-dielectric sheets are subjected to a heat process in which the high-dielectric sheets are subjected to a first temperature at least once and a second temperature higher than the first temperature at least once.
Abstract:
Miniature circuitry and inductor components in which multiple levels of printed circuitry are formed on each side of a support panel, typically a printed circuit board or rigid flex. Electrical connection between the plural levels of circuitry and multiple windings around magnetic members are provided by plural plated through hole conductors. Small through hole openings accommodate a plurality of the plated through hole conductors since each is insulated from the others by a very thin layer of vacuum deposited organic layer such as parylene having a high dielectric strength. Adhesion of this plated copper to the organic layer is provided by first applying an adhesive promotor to the surface of the organic layer followed by the vacuum deposition of the organic layer.
