Abstract:
A circuit board, onto which an electronic component is to be mounted, is provided with insulating core substrates and patterned metal plates. The metal plates are bonded to at least one side of the insulating core substrates. The insulating core substrates and the metal plates form a laminated body, in which a gas-vent hole is provided. The gas-vent hole is formed so that when the electronic component is mounted, the gas present between the insulating core substrates and the metal plates expands and is released to a side open to the atmosphere via the gas-vent hole.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a mechanism of thermal isolation for multiple heat-generating devices on a substrate are described. In one aspect, a substrate is configured for a plurality of heat-generating devices to be disposed thereon. The substrate comprises an electrically-conductive layer that is electrically coupled to the heat-generating devices when the heat-generating devices are disposed on the substrate. The electrically-conductive layer is configured to thermally isolate the heat-generating devices such that there is no thermal coupling through the electrically-conductive layer amongst the heat-generating devices.
