Abstract:
A wired circuit board can control characteristic impedance at connection points between wires of a suspension board with circuit and terminal portions of the wired circuit board connected thereto with a simple structure, to improve signal transmission efficiency even for fine pitch wiring or for high frequency signals. The wired circuit board includes a relay flexible wiring circuit board formed by a first wired circuit board including a first metal substrate, a first insulating base layer, a first conductor layer and a first insulating cover layer which is substantially identical in layer structure with the suspension board with circuit and a second wired circuit board connected with the first wired circuit board for connecting with a control circuit board. Since the suspension board with circuit and the first wired circuit board are rendered substantially identical in layer structure, both characteristic impedances at these connection points can be matched.

Each external connection terminal (12) is formed as a bump projected downward from the bottom surface of the package, and each bump is filled with the insulating resin (14) while the surface thereof is covered by a metal (16). Wiring (24), (26) including a conductor via (26a) electrically connect the metal of the metal layer 16 and the semiconductor element-mounting terminals (18).
Abstract:
Metal foil is laminated via an insulating layer so as to cover the first layer circuit wiring formed on a conductive substrate, and a resist layer is formed so as to cover the second layer circuit wiring formed by pattern-etching the metal foil. Using the conductive substrate as a power feeding layer, a conductive material is filled, by electrolytic plating, in interlayer via holes each formed by applying a laser beam to the resist layer, thereby to establish interlayer connection between the first layer circuit wiring and the second layer circuit wiring. Subsequently, the resist layer is removed, and then, using the conductive substrate as a power feeding layer, a conductive material is filled, by electrolytic plating, in hole portions of an insulating layer formed so as to cover the second layer circuit wiring, thereby to form external connection terminals. Then, the conductive substrate is removed entirely or partly to expose the first layer circuit wiring, thereby to manufacture a flexible multilayer wiring board.
Abstract:
A system and method for connecting flexible circuitry in a disk drive system such as that used in computer systems. The system and method allow a large number of traces to be connected in a small area by forming male and female connector portions at an end of a mating pair of traces. the male and female portions are formed using conventional flexible circuit fabrication techniques, making possible very accurate control of very small built-in type connectors. The connection can be uncoupled and re-coupled, and added security of attachment can be achieved through the use of ultra-sonic bonding and use of a mechanical clamp.
