[0002] With the rapid development of integrated circuit technology, high-performance computing chips such as CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and ASICs are becoming increasingly powerful, complex, and extremely miniaturized. Advanced packaging technology is needed to help integrate chips while maintaining the same area, thereby promoting more efficient heterogeneous packaging integration. ABF film substrates can provide finer line width wiring for high-performance computing chips, meeting high-density wiring requirements.

[0003] ABF film (Ajinomoto Build-up Film) is an insulating material produced by Ajinomoto Co., Ltd. of Japan for use as an interlayer insulation material for high-density packaging substrate circuits. ABF film is a highly durable and rigid film that resists expansion and contraction during temperature changes, making it a suitable substrate for use between nano- and millimeter-scale components of processors or ICs. Its common method is to use direct surface laser drilling and chemical copper plating. For example, in the method for manufacturing a low-warpage, high-density packaging substrate with invention patent application number CN202110469453.9 published by the State Intellectual Property Office, the inner layer circuit of the packaging substrate is laminated with the ABF film layer. Surface roughening is required before lamination, and laser drilling and chemical copper deposition are performed after lamination to form a multi-layer packaging substrate. The above-mentioned patent uses traditional PCB board manufacturing processes for ABF film lamination and laser drilling. The process is complex and the dimensional structure is greatly affected by the PCB board level.
