A method for fabricating a circuit apparatus includes forming a wiring layer, a conductive layer, and a first insulating layer on the wiring substrate, removing the conductive layer in an opening of the first insulating layer so as to expose the wiring layer, forming a gold plating layer on the wiring layer, removing the first insulating layer and the conductive layer, forming a second insulating layer on the wiring substrate, the second insulating layer having an opening through which the gold plating and adjacent wiring layers are exposed, and electrically connecting a circuit element to the gold plating layer.

Method of fabricating a circuit apparatus

Provided is a circuit board which suppresses abnormal formation of plated layer inside a via, caused by core materials of glass fibers or the like projected from a side wall of the via and which helps to improve the connection reliability of the via. An insulating layer, which is formed of thermoset resin and embedded with glass fibers, is provided between a first wiring layer and a second wiring layer. The glass fibers projected into a via hole side from a side wall of the via hole in different positions are embedded into a via conductor in such a state that the glass fibers are jointed with each other.

Circuit board and method for manufacturing the same

A circuit board, having improved adhesion between its via conductor and insulating layer, is provided. The circuit board includes a first wiring layer, a second wiring layer, the insulating layer, a filler, and the via conductor. The first wiring layer and the second wiring layer are electrically insulated from each other by the insulating layer. The filler which has a favorable thermal conductivity is added into the insulating layer. The via conductor establishing electrical connection between the first wiring layer and the second wiring layer is formed in a predetermined position of the insulating layer. The via conductor is in direct contact with part of the filler added into the insulating layer.

Circuit board

A circuit device having superior mechanical strength at the interface between a circuit board and heat sink and superior efficiency for radiating heat from a circuit element to the heat sink through the circuit board. The circuit device includes the metal-based insulation board for installing the circuit element, and the heat sink, over which the insulation board is installed with a paste arranged therebetween. The insulation board has a projection arranged on the surface facing the heat sink along a peripheral portion. At least part of the projection contacts the heat sink through the paste layer.

Circuit device

The likelihood of exfoliation of a sealing resin layer at a pad electrode part is reduced so that the reliability of a circuit apparatus is improved. A circuit apparatus includes a wiring layer, a gold plating layer, an insulating resin layer, a circuit element, a conductive member and sealing resin layer. The gold plating layer is formed in an wiring layer area for the pad electrode. The surface outside the area is roughened. The insulating resin layer is formed so as to cover the wiring layer and to have an opening in an area in which the pad electrode is formed. The circuit element is mounted on a predetermined area on the insulating resin layer. The sealing resin layer is formed on the insulating resin layer so as to entirely cover the circuit element and the opening for the pad electrode. The sealing resin layer, in the area for the pad electrode, is in contact with the gold plating layer and the wiring layer.

Circuit apparatus and method of fabricating the apparatus

The present invention provides a circuit device capable of controlling deformation of a circuit device while preventing an insulating layer from peeling from a substrate. The circuit device includes a substrate, an insulating layer formed on the substrate, a filler filled into the insulating layer, a conductive layer formed on the insulating layer, and a circuit element formed on the conductive layer, wherein an average particle diameter of the filler filled into the insulating layer is controlled so that a Young's modulus of a part of the insulating layer on a substrate side can be smaller than a Young's modulus of a part of the insulating layer on an opposite side relative to the substrate side.
