Abstract:
The invention provides a circuit board with heat sink and a method of fabricating the same. The circuit board according to the invention includes a substrate, a lead layer and a ceramic layer. The lead layer is formed on an upper surface of the substrate, and includes two contact points corresponding to an electronic device. The ceramic layer is formed on the upper surface of the substrate, and particularly formed between such two contact points. The ceramic layer serves as a heat sink for the electronic device.
Abstract:
A metal-based circuit board, which reduces the influence of thermal expansion, is provided having a structure where an insulating layer A having a large coefficient of thermal expansion is sandwiched between insulating layers B having a small coefficient of thermal expansion. Such a structure allows the insulating layers B to contract and expand so as to suppress contraction and expansion of the insulating layer A and thereby reduce the stress in the direction of negating the stress. As a result, while warpage or distortion is suppressed to be minimal, the bonding strength of the upper and the lower layer is maintained, and degree of freedom for circuit design is not impaired, thereby providing a highly reliable circuit structure.

Abstract:
A laminate type ceramic electronic component includes a thick film resistor and an overcoat layer so as to prevent defects such as delamination from being caused and to prevent the thick film resistor from being cracked after laser trimming, even when a method is adopted in which an unfired composite laminate is subjected to firing in such a way that an unfired ceramic laminate, an unfired thick film resistor, and an unfired overcoat layer are each integrally sintered. The unfired overcoat layer includes a glass ceramic material containing a ceramic and glass having substantially the same constituents and compositional ratio as those of the glass contained in the unfired ceramic layer. The respective glass ceramic materials constituting the unfired ceramic layer and the unfired overcoat layer are adjusted so that the ratio of a crystalline phase with a smaller coefficient of thermal expansion than the coefficient of thermal expansion of the fired ceramic layer is higher in the overcoat layer than in the ceramic layer.

In a multilayer ceramic substrate having a built-in capacitor provided in a ceramic laminate including a plurality of ceramic layers laminated to each other, the built-in capacitor being formed of a first capacitor electrode, a second capacitor electrode, and one of the dielectric glass ceramic layers, the capacitance value of the built-in capacitor is adjusted by performing laser trimming of the first capacitor electrode. The one dielectric glass ceramic layer is made of a TiO2-based dielectric glass ceramic layer in which the amount of dielectric grains including TiO2 is about 10 percent to about 35 percent by volume.
