The present invention provides a structure of a printed circuit board and a manufacturing method thereof. The method includes: (a) forming a circuit pattern on an insulating layer in which a seed layer is formed; (b) embedding the circuit pattern into the insulating layer by a press method; and (c) removing the seed layer. According to the present invention, a fine pattern may be formed without occurring alignment problem by forming a circuit pattern directly on an insulating layer and reliability of the formed fine pattern may be increased by performing a process of embedding protruded circuits into the insulating layer. In addition, possibility of inferior circuit occurring due to ion migration between adjacent circuits may be reduced by performing over-etching a circuit layer to be lower than a surface of the insulating layer during the etching process of removing a seed layer.

Printed circuit board and manufacturing method thereof

An embedded PCB, a multi-layer PCB using the embedded PCB, and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The method of manufacturing an embedded PCB includes a first step of patterning an insulating layer on which a photoresist layer is formed using a laser such that parts of the insulating layer are selectively etched to form a circuit pattern region and a second step of filling the circuit pattern region with a plating material to form a circuit pattern. Accordingly, the method of manufacturing an embedded PCB can simultaneously or sequentially etch a photoresist layer and an insulating layer using a laser to form a circuit pattern so as to obtain a micro pattern and simplify a manufacturing process and achieve alignment accuracy in construction of a multi-layer PCB using the embedded PCB to thereby improve product reliability and yield.
