Each stack up structure may be packaged in a variety of ways, including as a surface mount component, ball grid array, or land grid array.
Abstract:
A printed wiring board is manufactured by a method in which a base substrate having a first insulation layer, a second insulation layer, and a conductive film is provided. An electronic component is placed on the first insulation layer at a position determined based on an alignment mark. After the electronic component is enclosed inside an opening of the second insulation layer, a via hole exposing a terminal of the electronic component is formed at a position determined based on the alignment mark, which is used to determine the position of the electronic component. A via conductor is formed in the via hole, and a conductive layer is formed on the conductive film and patterned to form a conductive circuit connected to the via conductor.
