Abstract:
A method of making an array of integral terminals on a circuit assembly. The method includes the steps of depositing at least a first liquid dielectric layer on the first surface of a first circuit member, imaged to include a plurality of first recesses corresponding to the array of integral terminals. The selected surfaces of the first recesses are processed to accept electro-less conductive plating deposition. Electro-lessly plating is applied to the selected surfaces of the first recesses to create a plurality of first conductive structures electrically coupled to, and extending generally perpendicular to, the first circuitry layer. Electro-plating is applied to the electro-less plating to substantially first recesses with a conductive material. The steps of depositing, processing, electro-less plating, and electro-plating are repeated to form the integral terminals of a desired shape. The dielectric layers are removed to expose the terminals.

Abstract:
One disclosed embodiment comprises formation of a padless via in a substrate. The padless via includes a hole through a metal layer blanketing the substrate, as well as the underlying substrate. An inner wall of the padless via hole receives a seed layer of a conductive material. Electrolytic differential plating is then performed, resulting in a preferential accumulation of a conductive plating material on the via inner wall, relative to that deposited on a surface of the substrate. In one embodiment, the differential plating is performed by addition of an organic suppressant to a plating bath.

A method for making a multilayer circuit board from circuit board layers, each including a dielectric layer and conductive traces thereon including a first metal. The method includes forming a through-via in a first circuit board layer, plating the through-via with the first metal, and coating a second metal onto the first metal of the first circuit board layer, the plated through-via, and the first metal. The method also includes aligning the first and second circuit board layers together so that the plated through-via of the first circuit board layer is adjacent a feature on the second circuit board layer, and heating and pressing the aligned first and second circuit board layers so as to laminate the dielectric layers together and form an intermetallic compound of the first and second metals bonding adjacent metal portions.
