Benefits of technology

[0008]Accordingly, the present invention directs to a package substrate having embedded capacitor for enhancing the space and degree of freedom of disposing the embedded capacitor.

Problems solved by technology

However, because the capacitance of the conventional discrete capacitor is low and has a low dielectric constant, they could hardly enhance the performance of a conventional circuit substrate.
In the meantime, the discrete capacitors 130 are easily damaged or broken in the process of compressing the substrate.

first embodiment

[0028]FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a portion of a package substrate having embedded capacitor according to the present invention. The package substrate 200 mainly includes a core circuit board 210, a dielectric layer 220, at least one embedded capacitor 230 and a metal layer 240. The core circuit board 210 is, for example, a copper foil substrate with glass fiber and epoxy resin serving as insulating material so as to enhance the strength and support of the package substrate 200. In addition, the core circuit board 210 has at least one conductive through hole 216. The method of forming the conductive through hole 216 includes, for example, performing a mechanical drilling to form a through hole and then performing an electrochemical plating to form a layer of conductive material on the inner sidewall of the through hole. As a result, the upper and lower copper foils are connected through the conductive through hole 216. After an etching operation is performed to pattern the copp...

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan application serial no. 95141129, filed Nov. 7, 2006. All disclosure of the Taiwan application is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a package substrate, and more particularly to a package substrate having embedded capacitor.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]Embedded capacitor can be integrated into a package substrate in the same fabrication process to enhance the efficiency of the active components inside an electronic package, improve electrical performance and lower assembling cost. Therefore, it has become the mainstream method for fabricating electronic carrier. At present, the development of embedded capacitor is mainly aiming toward small size ceramic capacitors. In general, ceramic capacitors can be classified into single layer ceramic capacitors (SLCC) and multi-layer ceramic ...
