Abstract:
A method of fabricating a free standing membrane comprising a via array in a dielectric for use as a precursor in the construction of superior electronic support structures, comprising the stages: I—Fabricating a membrane comprising conductive vias in a dielectric surround on a sacrificial carrier, and II—Detaching the membrane from the sacrificial carrier to form a free standing laminated array, and a method of fabricating an electronic substrate based on such a membrane comprising at least the stages of: (I) Fabricating a membrane comprising conductive vias in a dielectric surround on a sacrificial carrier; (II) Detaching the membrane from the sacrificial carrier to form a free standing laminated array; (V) Thinning and planarizing, and (VII) Terminating.
Abstract:
A method of fabricating an electronic substrate comprising the steps of; (A) selecting a first base layer; (B) depositing a first etchant resistant barrier layer onto the first base layer; (C) building up a first half stack of alternating conductive layers and insulating layers, the conductive layers being interconnected by vias through the insulating layers; (D) applying a second base layer onto the first half stack; (F) applying a protective coating of photoresist to the second base layer; (F) etching away the first base layer; (G) removing the protective coating of photoresist; (H) removing the first etchant resistant barrier layer; (I) building up a second half stack of alternating conductive layers and insulating layers, the conductive layers being interconnected by vias through the insulating layers, wherein the second half stack has a substantially symmetrical lay up to the first half stack; (J) applying an insulating layer onto the second hall stack of alternating conductive layers and insulating layers, (K) removing the second base layer, and (L) terminating the substrate by exposing ends of vias on outer surfaces of the stack and applying terminations thereto.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating an IC support for supporting a first IC die connected in series with a second IC die; the IC support comprising a stack of alternating layers of copper features and vias in insulating surround, the first IC die being bondable onto the IC support, and the second IC die being bondable within a cavity inside the IC support, wherein the cavity is formed by etching away a copper base and selectively etching away built up copper.

Abstract:
A method of fabricating a free standing membrane including via array in a dielectric for use as a precursor in the construction of superior electronic support structures, includes the steps of fabricating a membrane of conductive vias in a dielectric surround on a sacrificial carrier, and detaching the membrane from the sacrificial carrier to form a free standing laminated array. An electronic substrate based on such a free standing membrane may be formed by thinning and planarizing laminated array, followed by terminating.
