Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field related to micro-hole metallization, and more specifically, relates to a laminated composite multi-layer circuit and a method for metallizing vertical interconnect micro-holes thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the fields of aerospace, weapon equipment manufacturing, etc., products, components, and assemblies are developing towards miniaturization, lightweight, multi-functionality, and high reliability, which leads to higher requirements for the integrated technology of electronic product structures and functions. The integrated manufacturing technology of multi-layer three-dimensional circuits has become an important guarantee for products, their components, and assemblies to meet the above requirements, and requires related three-dimensional circuit manufacturing and packaging technologies to meet the needs of multi-layer wiring and high-density interconnection. As an intermediate layer structure for vertical interconnection, the vertical interconnection structure plays an irreplaceable role in 3D packaging integration capabilities and system integration.

[0003] As an intermediate layer structure for vertical interconnection, the vertical interconnection structure plays an irreplaceable role in 3D packaging integration capabilities and system integration. The key lies in the production of circuit lines and interconnection holes on high-density interconnection printed circuit boards. Drilling holes and metallizing the hole walls are the main ways to achieve electrical interconnection between layers of multi-layer circuit boards, and require efficient and low-cost through-hole preparation processes and defect-free filling processes. Usually, methods such as mechanical drilling, ultrasonic drilling, ultrasonic high-speed drilling, wet etching, deep reactive ion etching, laser etching, and laser-induced deep etching are used to make holes, and chemical copper plating is used to achieve through-hole electrical interconnection.

[0004] High-density micro-hole metallization for preparing complex curved multi-layer interconnected micro-holes is a prerequisite. The interconnection holes in printed circuit boards include through-holes (via holes connecting the top layer and the bottom layer of the printed circuit board), buried holes (holes embedded inside the printed circuit board and not visible on the surface), and blind holes (holes that do not penetrate the board). The processing methods for buried holes and through-holes mainly use mechanical drilling methods. For specific via hole sizes, the aperture of the latest generation of precision CNC drilling systems can reach 100 μm.

[0005] Through-hole technology has been widely promoted and mass-produced in various product applications, including fields such as stacked memories, image and optical sensors, inertial sensing microsystems, radio frequency / microwave systems, bio-microsystems, logic and processor systems, and networks-on-chip. The current main through-hole metallization methods include vacuum / pressure filling, electroplating, printing, inkjet printing, etc. Vacuum / pressure filling is mainly used for through-hole filling of planar substrates. Researchers have formed through-silicon vias (TSVs) by pressure infiltration of molten Sn into Si vias, enabling the through-hole filling to be completed within 5 seconds, regardless of the through-hole size. TSVs of different diameters can be infiltrated with molten Sn under external pressure and can be formed within 5 seconds, with a diameter range of 10μm - 200μm. Other research has used vacuum adsorption to fill silver-based epoxy resin into silicon vias, and it can fill more than 450μm in 3 seconds under an adsorption pressure of 1.6 kPa, preparing interconnected vias with a diameter of 100μm and a pitch of 500μm, with an average resistance of 24.83Ω.

[0006] Although the above technologies have their own characteristics, vacuum / pressure equipment is complex and requires a vacuum environment, which is not suitable for through-hole filling of large-area and curved substrates and is mostly in the experimental research stage; although electroplating for vertical interconnection of multi-layer circuits with micro-hole metallization has been widely used in the electronics industry, it is inefficient, time-consuming, and involves electrochemical reactions. Currently, the substrate materials for micro-hole metallization are mainly glass, ceramics, and silicon wafers, and no metallization method suitable for micro-holes in multi-layer circuits of laminated composites has been proposed. The above vertical interconnection micro-hole metallization methods are all through-hole metallization, and one micro-hole can only be used for electrical interconnection between two metal conductive layers, without realizing the interconnection of a single micro-hole through multi-layer circuits to achieve single-hole multi-layer circuit interconnection.

[0007] In summary, the existing technologies face great challenges in achieving rapid metallization of vertical interconnection micro-holes in multi-layer circuits. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of rapid metallization high-density micro-hole interconnection process method for multi-layer circuits, which can rapidly and efficiently, at low cost, and with high quality, prepare multi-layer conductive layer vertical interconnection circuits. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Further, the diameter of the tin balls is larger than the diameter of the nozzle of the automated tin feeding mechanism.

[0014] Further, fill the solid tin balls into an automated tin feeding mechanism, and then connect a high-pressure protective gas to the nozzle of the automated tin feeding mechanism; then, align the nozzle of the automated tin feeding mechanism with the micro-holes, use a laser to heat the tin balls in the nozzle, and the high-pressure protective gas causes the tin ball particles to melt and be sprayed into the micro-holes along with the high-pressure protective gas, contacting the conductive layer in the laminated composite multi-layer circuit, and completing the metallization of the vertical interconnection micro-holes between the inner and outer layers and the intermediate metal conductive layer of the multi-layer circuit.

[0015] Further, the micro-holes are blind holes.

[0016] Further, the diameter of the tin balls is less than 1 / 2 of the diameter of the filled micro-holes.

[0017] Further, the laser is one segment or multiple segments.

[0018] Further, the soldering flux is a liquid soldering flux, and a brush is used to brush the soldering flux into the micro-holes to make the soldering flux fully contact the tin ball particles.

[0019] The present invention also provides a laminated composite multi-layer circuit, and the micro-holes of the multi-layer circuit are metallized by using the method for metallizing the vertical interconnection micro-holes of the laminated composite multi-layer circuit as described above to realize interconnection with the conductive layer.

[0020] Generally speaking, compared with the prior art through the above technical solutions conceived by the present invention, the stacked composite multi-layer circuit provided by the present invention and the metallization method for the vertical interconnection micro-holes mainly have the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. By filling the processed blind holes with common tin ball particles, the material price used in processing is reduced, the process cost is reduced, and the rapid metallization of the vertical interconnection micro-holes of the stacked composite multi-layer circuit is realized.

[0022] 2. By heating the bottom plate of the multi-layer circuit material to preheat the tin balls to achieve the rapid metallization of the vertical interconnection micro-holes, the full melting of the tin balls can be realized, and the time and number of times required for laser heating are greatly reduced.

[0023] 3. By melting the tin balls through multi-segment laser heating to achieve the rapid metallization of the vertical interconnection micro-holes, the gaps between the tin balls can be eliminated, so that the melted tin balls are in full contact with the bottom and side surfaces of the micro-holes, and a very low resistance of the micro-hole interconnection can be achieved, realizing the vertical micro-hole interconnection of the multi-layer circuit.

[0026] 6. According to the different compositions of the tin ball particles, the melting points of the tin ball particles range from 138°C to 217°C. Different tin balls can be selected according to the process temperature that the substrate can withstand and the temperature requirements of the curved circuit working environment to meet the temperature requirements during the processing and the high-temperature stability requirements in the circuit working environment.

[0027] 7. According to the different diameters of the tin ball particles, the diameters of the tin ball particles range from 30μm to 200μm.
