AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies require PP grooving, PI tape application, and depth-controlled fishing operations when manufacturing stepped gold fingers, which leads to substrate damage and increased production costs, failing to meet the requirements of new designs.
A manufacturing method that eliminates the need for PP grooving and PI tape is adopted. Through holes are formed by sintering conductive silver paste during the lamination process of the first and second circuit substrates, thereby achieving the connection between layers and eliminating the need for drilling and electroplating processes.
This avoids damage to the substrate, saves on processes and production costs, and enables the efficient fabrication of stepped gold fingers.
