"Up", "down", "above", "below", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative position relationship. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative position relationship also changes accordingly.

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 10 The present application embodiment provides a method for manufacturing a circuit board 100, and the manufacturing method may include the following steps:

[0032] Step S1: Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a circuit substrate 10 is provided, the circuit substrate 10 includes a dielectric layer 11, a conductive portion 132, a conductive lead 134 and a first insulating layer 136, the conductive portion 132 and the conductive lead 134 are located on the surface of the dielectric layer 11, and the first insulating layer 136 covers the surface of the conductive portion 132 away from the dielectric layer 11.

[0033] The circuit substrate 10 includes a conductive layer 13, which is located on the surface of the dielectric layer 11. The conductive layer 13 is formed by etching. The cross section of the conductive layer 13 is roughly trapezoidal, with a small width on the side away from the dielectric layer 11 and a large width on the side close to the dielectric layer 11. The conductive layer 13 includes a conductive portion 132, and the conductive portion 132 and the conductive lead 134 are located on the same surface of the dielectric layer 11. The conductive portion 132 and the conductive lead 134 are arranged at intervals, and the conductive layer 13 is connected to the conductive lead 134. The number of the conductive portion 132 can be one or more, and the number of the conductive lead 134 is at least two. In this embodiment, the number of the conductive portion 132 and the conductive lead 134 are both two. The conductive leads 134 are distributed on both sides of the conductive portion 132, and the adjacent conductive portions 132 are arranged at intervals. The conductive lead 134 can be used for electroplating in subsequent processes.

[0034] The first insulating layer 136 covers the surface of the conductive portion 132 away from the dielectric layer 11 , and is used to shield the surface of the conductive portion 132 away from the dielectric layer 11 .

[0035] The number of dielectric layers 11 is not limited to one layer. The material of the dielectric layer 11 can be selected from one of polyimide (PI), liquid crystal polymer (LCP), modified polyimide (MPI), polypropylene (PP), polyethylenenaphthalate diformic acid glycol ester (PEN), glass fiber, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and the like.

[0036] Step S2: Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 A spacer layer 20 is formed between adjacent conductive portions 132 and / or between the conductive portion 132 and the conductive lead 134 , and the spacer layer 20 is spaced apart from the conductive portion 132 and / or the conductive lead 134 .

[0037] The material of the spacer layer 20 may be photosensitive resin, ink, dry film, wet film, etc. In some embodiments, the steps of forming the spacer layer 20 may include:

[0038] Step S21: Please refer to Figure 3 , a fourth dry film 21 is covered on the circuit substrate 10 , and the fourth dry film 21 covers the conductive portion 132 , the conductive lead 134 , the first insulating layer 136 and the surface of the dielectric layer 11 .

[0039] Step S22: Please refer to Figure 4The fourth dry film 21 is exposed and developed to form a spacer layer 20 between adjacent conductive portions 132 and between the conductive portions 132 and the conductive leads 134 .

[0040] Along the stacking direction of the circuit substrate 10, the height of the spacer layer 20 is higher than the height of the conductive part 132, so that the spacer layer 20 can play a blocking role in the subsequent electroplating process. As the height of the spacer layer 20 increases, the height of the subsequently formed electroplating layer can also increase accordingly.

[0041] Along the direction perpendicular to the stacking arrangement, the width of the spacer layer 20 can be reduced as much as possible. The width of the spacer layer 20 determines the distance between adjacent electroplated layers formed subsequently. In some embodiments, the width of the spacer layer 20 can be less than 20 μm.

[0042] Step S3: Please refer to Figure 5 The circuit substrate 10 is electroplated to form a first electroplating layer 31 on the surface of the conductive portion 132 , and a second electroplating layer 41 is formed on the surface of the conductive lead 134 . The first electroplating layer 31 also covers a portion of the surface of the first insulating layer 136 to form a groove 312 .

[0043] During the electroplating process, a clamp (not shown) may be used to clamp the conductive lead 134 at a clamping point 138 (see Figure 1 ) as a cathode to electroplate the circuit substrate 10 to form an electroplating layer (not shown, including a first electroplating layer 31 and a second electroplating layer 41), and the electroplating layer is formed on the surface of the conductive layer 13 to form a circuit together with the conductive layer 13 (not shown). Each conductive portion 132 forms a pad 30 with the corresponding first electroplating layer 31. The surface of the first electroplating layer 31 facing away from the dielectric layer 11 forms a groove 312, and the first electroplating layer 31 covers the conductive portion 132 exposed to the dielectric layer 11 and the surface of the first insulating layer 136. After the spacer layer 20 is set and the electroplating layer is formed by the electroplating step, the distance between adjacent circuits is reduced, which can increase the wiring density of the circuit board 100, that is, the increase in wiring density is not limited by the etching ability.

[0044] The side surfaces of the first electroplating layer 31 and the second electroplating layer 41 are both connected to the spacer layer 20 . The height of the first electroplating layer 31 can be increased by controlling the electroplating conditions, thereby increasing the depth of the groove 312 .

[0045] The distance between adjacent pads 30 and the distance between adjacent pads 30 and the second electroplating layer 41 can be controlled by the width of the spacer layer 20 . For example, the width of the spacer layer 20 can be reduced, and the wiring density of the circuit board 100 can be increased.

[0046] The surface flatness of the spacer layer 20 determines the flatness of the first electroplating layer 31 and the second electroplating layer 41 . If the surface flatness of the spacer layer 20 is good, the surface flatness of the first electroplating layer 31 and the second electroplating layer 41 will be good.

[0047] In other embodiments, the step of forming the spacer layer 20 may also be omitted. The deposition rate of the electroplated layer may be adjusted by adjusting the electroplating conditions and the solution formulation. For example, reducing the Cu content in the solution used for electroplating 2+ and H + The ratio of can reduce the deposition rate of electroplating; or add an appropriate amount of leveling agent, such as an organic compound containing a quaternary amine structure. Since the molecule has a strong positive charge, the N at this position + Will be adsorbed to the high current area on the cathode surface and 2+ Compete for high current density area and significantly reduce Cu 2+ The landing probability can be reduced by electrostatic adsorption on the surface, reducing the current density of the conductive part 132 near the dielectric layer 11, thereby reducing the deposition rate. Compared with etching, the embodiment of the present application is conducive to improving the etching factor by electroplating the conductive lead 134, and the line spacing is reduced, which is suitable for high-density wiring.

[0048] Levelers (such as organic compounds containing thiol structures) can also be added to the potion to facilitate Cu 2+ The formation of complexes accelerates the nucleation rate of copper.

[0049] Step S4: Please refer to Figure 6 , remove the first insulating layer 136 and the spacer layer 20.

[0050] In some embodiments, the entire first insulating layer 136 and the entire spacer layer 20 may be removed, and the surface of the dielectric layer 11 exposed to the pad 30 and the surface of the second electroplating layer 41 are exposed.

[0051] In other embodiments, only the portion of the spacer layer 20 protruding from the pad 30 and the second electroplating layer 41 may be removed, and the remaining spacer layer 20 may serve as an insulating layer for the spacer pad 30 and / or the second electroplating layer 41 .

[0052] Step S5: Please refer to Figure 7 , a solder resist layer 50 is formed, the solder resist layer 50 covers a portion of the first electroplating layer 31 and the second electroplating layer 41 , and the groove 312 is exposed to the solder resist layer 50 .

[0053] Part of the first electroplating layer 31 and the surface of the conductive part 132 covered by the first insulating layer 136 are exposed to the solder mask 50. The surface of the conductive part 132 covered by the first insulating layer 136 is not etched, so the surface flatness is good, which is beneficial to increase the reliability of the electrical connection.

[0054] Step S6: Please refer to Figure 8 A surface treatment layer 55 is formed on the surface of the first plating layer 31 and the conductive portion 132 exposed to the solder resist layer 50 .

[0055] The surface treatment layer 55 can increase the conductivity of the pad 30 and prevent the first electroplating layer 31 and the conductive portion 132 from being oxidized when exposed to the surface of the solder mask 50. The surface treatment layer 55 can be a gold layer.

[0056] See also Fig. 9 In some embodiments, the method for manufacturing the circuit substrate 10 may include the following steps:

[0057] Step S111 : covering the substrate 60 with an adhesive tape 63 . The substrate 60 includes a dielectric layer 11 and a first copper layer 61 located on a surface of the dielectric layer 11 . The adhesive tape 63 covers a portion of the surface of the first copper layer 61 .

[0058] The substrate 60 may be a copper-clad laminate or a circuit substrate. In this embodiment, the substrate 60 is a single-sided copper-clad laminate.

[0059] The number of the adhesive tapes 63 is the same as the number of the conductive leads 134 to be formed subsequently. The adhesive tape 63 includes a base material layer (not shown) and an adhesive layer (not shown), the adhesive layer being located between the base material layer and the first copper layer 61, and the adhesive layer plays a bonding role.

[0060] The material of the substrate layer may be polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene, or polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PET). The adhesive layer may be an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive.

[0061] The adhesive strength of the adhesive tape 63 at room temperature (eg, 10° C.-20° C.) is greater than 2 N / cm. After being heated (eg, 60° C.-80° C.), the adhesive strength is greatly reduced, for example, less than 0.2 N / cm.

[0062] Step S112 : Covering the surface of the first copper layer 61 exposed to the tape 63 with a first dry film 65 .

[0063] The first dry film 65 may also cover the adhesive tape 63 .

[0064] Step S113 : exposing and developing the first dry film 65 to form a first insulating layer 136 .

[0065] The number of the first insulating layer 136 is the same as the number of the pads 30 to be formed subsequently. The first insulating layer 136 is spaced apart from the tape 63. The first insulating layer 136 covers the surface of the first copper layer 61. In the subsequent process, the surface of the first copper layer 61 covered by the first insulating layer 136 is not etched, which is beneficial to improve the surface flatness of the pads 30 to be formed subsequently.

[0066] Step S114: etching the first copper layer 61 to form a conductive portion 132 and a conductive lead 134. The first copper layer 61 covered by the first insulating layer 136 is etched to form the conductive portion 132, and the first copper layer 61 covered by the tape 63 is etched to form the conductive lead 134.

[0067] Step S115: Remove the tape 63 to obtain the circuit substrate 10 (see Figure 2 ).

[0068] The adhesive strength of the adhesive tape 63 can be reduced by heating in a drying oven, and then the adhesive tape 63 can be torn off without affecting the quality of the surface of the first copper layer 61 in the bonding area.

[0069] See also Fig.10 In some other embodiments, a method for manufacturing a circuit substrate 10 is also provided, which may include the following steps:

[0070] Step S121 : covering the substrate 60 with a second dry film 70 . The substrate 60 includes a dielectric layer 11 and a first copper layer 61 located on a surface of the dielectric layer 11 . The second dry film 70 covers the first copper layer 61 .

[0071] Step S122 : exposing and developing the second dry film 70 to form a second insulating layer 71 , and a portion of the surface of the first copper layer 61 is exposed to the second insulating layer 71 .

[0072] Step S123 : forming a shielding layer 73 on the surface of the first copper layer 61 exposed to the second insulating layer 71 .

[0073] Step S124 : removing the second insulating layer 71 , and laminating the third dry film 80 , wherein the third dry film 80 covers the first copper layer 61 exposed to the shielding layer 73 .

[0074] The third dry film 80 may also cover the shielding layer 73 .

[0075] Step S125 : exposing and developing the third dry film 80 to form a first insulating layer 136 , wherein the first insulating layer 136 is spaced apart from the shielding layer 73 .

[0077] Please refer again Figure 8 The embodiment of the present application further provides a circuit board 100 , which may include a dielectric layer 11 , a solder pad 30 , and a conductive lead 134 , wherein the solder pad 30 and the conductive lead 134 are located on the same surface of the dielectric layer 11 .

[0078] The pad 30 includes a conductive portion 132 and a first electroplating layer 31. The conductive portion 132 is located on the surface of the dielectric layer 11. The first electroplating layer 31 covers a portion of the surface of the conductive portion 132 and is connected to the dielectric layer 11. A groove 312 is provided on the surface of the first electroplating layer 31 facing away from the dielectric layer 11, and the surface of the conductive portion 132 facing away from the dielectric layer 11 is exposed to the groove 312.

The conductive paste 220 is received in a groove 312 and connected to the electronic component 210 so that the electronic component 210 is electrically connected to the circuit board 100.

[0082] The manufacturing method of the circuit board 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application first forms the conductive part 132 by etching, and then forms the first electroplating layer 31 by electroplating, thereby forming the pad 30, which is beneficial to improve the etching factor, form a circuit with a smaller spacing, and improve the wiring density; in addition, through the shielding of the first insulating layer 136, it is convenient to form the pad 30 with the groove 312 during the electroplating process. In the process of installing the electronic component 210 on the circuit board 100, the conductive paste 220 is placed in the groove 312 and reflow soldering is performed. After the conductive paste 220 is melted, due to the barrier effect of the groove 312, the melted conductive paste 220 is located in the corresponding groove 312, thereby reducing or avoiding the possibility of bridging short circuit phenomenon.
