Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a multilayer circuit board and a manufacturing method thereof, and in particular to a multilayer circuit board provided with impedance sensitive electronic components. Background Art

[0002] Some circuit boards are provided with impedance-sensitive electronic components (such as power modules) due to functional requirements. Impedance-sensitive electronic components refer to electronic components whose characteristics or performance will be seriously affected by the impedance of the circuit layout. Taking the power module as an example, in the circuit layout of the circuit board, it is hoped that the circuit between the power module and the capacitor or inductor to which it is electrically coupled can be shortened as much as possible, thereby reducing the overall impedance of the circuit layout and improving the power output efficiency.

[0043] The following is a detailed description of the technical content and features of the present invention through several examples listed in combination with the accompanying drawings. Directional descriptive terms such as "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "top", and "bottom" mentioned in this specification are only illustrative descriptive terms based on normal usage directions and are not intended to limit the scope of the claims.

[0044] In order to explain the technical features of the present invention in detail, the following two embodiments are given and described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the first embodiment provides a multi-layer circuit board 1 with impedance-sensitive electronic components, which includes a lower main board 10 , an inner circuit board layer 20 and an upper main board 30 .

[0046] A plurality of welding pads 11 are provided on the top surface of the lower main board 10, and an inductor 12 is provided in the center of the top surface of the lower main board 10. Figure 2 As shown, the inductor 12 structurally includes a body 13 and two electrodes 14 . The bottom of the body 13 is electrically connected to the lower main board 10 , and the two electrodes 14 are disposed on the top surface of the body 13 and extend upward.

[0047] The inner circuit board layer 20 is disposed above the lower main board 10 and includes a plurality of inner circuit boards 21. These inner circuit boards 21 are arranged in groups. Each group of inner circuit boards 21 is composed of a plurality of inner circuit boards 21 stacked up and down. In this embodiment, the number of each group of inner circuit boards 21 is three. These inner circuit boards 21 surround the inductor 12, and each group of inner circuit boards 21 is electrically connected to the lower main board 10. Please refer to Figure 3Each inner circuit board 21 includes a plated through hole structure P2 (PlatingThrough Hole). The plated through hole structure P2 includes a through hole 23 and two soldering pads 24. The through hole 23 passes through the top and bottom surfaces of each inner circuit board 21. The hole wall of the through hole 23 is paved with a metal layer 25 and a resin 26 is also provided in the through hole 23. The two soldering pads 24 are respectively arranged on the top and bottom surfaces of each inner circuit board 21 and cover the through hole 23. The two soldering pads 24 are electrically connected to the metal layer 25. Through the plated through hole structure P2, the stacked inner circuit boards 21 can be effectively electrically connected to each other, and the height of the top surface of the inner circuit board layer 20 can be controlled so that the top surface of the inner circuit board layer 20 is higher than or equal to the top surface of the inductor 12.

[0048] Please go back Figure 1 The upper main board 30 is disposed above the inner circuit board layer 20, and a plurality of solder pads 31 are provided on the top and bottom surfaces, so that the upper main board 30 can be electrically connected to the inner circuit board layer 20 through the solder pads 31. The top surface of the upper main board 30 is provided with two impedance-sensitive electronic components 32 arranged at intervals and two electroplated through-hole structures P1 ( Figure 1 Only one of them is shown). In the present embodiment, the impedance-sensitive electronic component 32 is a smart power stage module (Smart Power Stage) chip. In some cases, the number of the impedance-sensitive electronic component 32 may be only one. The structure of the plated through hole structure P1 of the upper main board 30 is different from the plated through hole structure P2 of the inner circuit board 21. Specifically, the plated through hole structure P1 of the upper main board 30 penetrates the top and bottom surfaces of the upper main board 30 and electrically connects the two impedance-sensitive electronic components 32 through a wire. The hole wall of the through hole 33 is paved with a metal layer 34. The electrode 14 of the inductor 12 is inserted into the through hole 33 of the plated through hole structure P1 and electrically connected to the plated through hole structure P1, so that the two impedance-sensitive electronic components 32 can be electrically connected to the inductor 12 through the plated through hole structure P1 of the upper main board 30.

[0049] Through the design of the above-mentioned multi-layer circuit board 1, since the inductor 12 is inserted into the above-mentioned plated through hole structure P1 through its electrode 14 and forms an electrical coupling with the plated through hole structure P1 of the upper main board 30, the impedance-sensitive electronic component 32 can be electrically connected to the inductor 12 through the plated through hole structure P1 of the upper main board 30 with a shorter circuit layout distance, thereby effectively shortening the circuit layout distance between the impedance-sensitive electronic component 32 and the inductor 12, and effectively reducing the overall impedance on the circuit layout, thereby improving the output efficiency of the impedance-sensitive electronic component 32.
