Abstract:
A layered board is disclosed which can avoid the occurrence of cracks in a core layer due to shearing stress caused by a difference in coefficient of thermal expansion between the core layer and a buildup layer. The layered board includes a core layer which serves as a printed board, a buildup layer which includes an insulation part and a wiring part, is overlaid on the core layer, and is electrically connected to the core layer, and an edge layer formed at least at an edge on the periphery of the core layer, the edge layer being different from the core layer. Alternatively, the core layer projects outward from an edge on the periphery of the buildup layer.

A wiring glass substrate includes a glass substrate formed of glass and having a plurality of holes formed at predetermined positions, bumps so formed as to be connected to a conductive material filling the holes and wirings formed on a surface opposite to a surface having the bumps formed thereon and electrically connecting a plurality of connection terminals arranged in intervals different from intervals of the holes to the conductive material. The shape of the conductive material is porous and porous electrodes are bonded to the inner wall surfaces of the holes by an anchor effect to increase the strength of the glass substrate.

Abstract:
A semiconductor device has a lower metal layer, a lower dielectric layer on top of the lower metal layer, an upper metal layer on top of the lower dielectric layer, an upper dielectric layer on top of the upper metal layer, and a contact region formed as a cavity that extends through the upper dielectric layer, the upper metal layer and the lower dielectric layer for access to a solder pad portion of the lower metal layer. A dielectric lining layer lines a peripheral cavity-confining surface of the cavity, and is transverse to a plane of the lower metal layer. The dielectric lining layer isolates the upper metal layer from the lower metal layer while permitting access to the solder pad portion of the lower metal layer. An electrical contact fills the cavity, and enables external electrical connection with the lower metal layer.
Abstract:
A capacitor sheet includes a laminate sheet, interface-connection feedthrough conductors for electrically connecting faces of the laminate sheet, and capacitor-connection feedthrough conductors. The laminate sheet has at least one laminate which is composed of a power source layer electrode, a grounding layer electrode, and a dielectric layer interposed between the power source layer electrode and the grounding layer electrode. The interface-connection feedthrough conductors are formed in through holes that pass through the dielectric layer, the power source layer electrode, and the grounding layer electrode, and are insulated by insulation walls from the power source layer electrode and the grounding layer electrode provided inside. The capacitor-connection feedthrough conductors are formed in regions where only either the power source layer electrode or the grounding layer electrode is provided, and are connected electrically with either the power source layer electrode or the grounding layer electrode. This configuration makes the electric connection for employing the capacitors and the electric connection between faces of the sheet independent from each other. Thus, it is possible to provide a capacitor sheet in which the adverse effects of inductances of vias are minimized.
Abstract:
A green ceramic insert having a green ceramic body provided with a recess extending through the ceramic body is provided, the recess being filled with a paste which may be converted into an electrical plated hole. A ceramic insert made from a sintered green ceramic insert of this type is also described. In addition, a ceramic green body or a green body composite is provided, which has at least one recess in some areas, into which one of the described green ceramic inserts is inserted. The ceramic insert may be integrally joined to the laminated composite, a conductive paste converted by sintering into a printed conductor being routed on the laminated composite in a manner electrically insulated from it, and electroconductively connecting the top of the laminated composite to its bottom via the electrical plated hole.
Abstract:
A protective coating of insulating material is formed around a clearance hole in a conductive layer of a printed circuit board, so that the conductive material in a via within the clearance hole will not contact the conductive layer and create a short circuit. In one embodiment, the protective coating is sufficiently hard to deflect a drill bit being used to drill the via hole, thus protecting against misregistered drilled holes.
