Abstract:
A board for mounting electronic circuit parts includes a first connection terminal group including a plurality of connection terminals densely formed on the top surface of a substrate having through holes formed therein, and a second connection terminal group including a plurality of connection terminals formed at at least the peripheral portion of a back surface of the substrate. The first connection terminal group is connected to the second connection terminal group by way of the through holes. A build-up multilayer interconnection layer having via holes is formed on the top surface of the substrate, so that the first connection terminal group is connected to the second connection terminal group through the build-up multilayer interconnection layer and the through holes. According to another aspect, each signal line on the top surface of the build-up multilayer interconnection layer comprises a plurality of wiring patterns having different widths and a taper-shaped pattern that connects those wiring patterns together and whose width continuously changes. Each signal line has a smaller width at an area having a relatively high wiring density than at an area having a relatively low wiring density.

A process for fabricating a wiring board is provided. In the process, a wiring carrying substrate including a carry substrate and a wiring layer is formed. Next, at least one blind via is formed in the wiring carrying substrate. Next, the wiring carrying substrate is laminated to another wiring carrying substrate via an insulation layer. The insulation layer is disposed between the wiring layers of the wiring carrying substrates and full fills the blind via. Next, parts of the carry substrates are removed to expose the insulation layer in the blind via. Next, a conductive pillar connected between the wiring layers is formed. Next, the rest carry substrates are removed.

Abstract:
Stretchable multi-chip modules (SMCMs) are capable of withstanding large mechanical deformations and conforming to curved surfaces. These SMCMs may find their utilities in elastic consumer electronics such as elastic displays, skin-like electronic sensors, etc. In particular, stretchable neural implants provide improved performances as to cause less mechanical stress and thus fewer traumas to surrounding soft tissues. Such SMCMs usually comprise of various electronic components attached to or embedded in a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate and wired through stretchable interconnects. However, reliably and compactly connecting the electronic components to PDMS-based stretchable interconnects is very challenging. This invention describes an integrated method for high-density interconnection of electronic components through stretchable interconnects in an SMCM. This invention has applications in high-density SMCMs, as well as high-density stretchable/conformable neural interfaces.

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.

A capture pad structure includes a first dielectric layer. A trace is embedded within the first dielectric layer. A capture pad is also embedded within the first dielectric layer, the capture pad being an end portion of the trace. A blind via aperture extends partially through the first dielectric layer from a principal surface of the first dielectric layer to the capture pad. By forming the capture pad as the end portion of the trace, formation of the capture pad requires no change in direction or complex motion of the laser.
