A circuit board structure and a method for fabricating the same are proposed. The structure includes an insulating protective layer having a plurality of openings in which conductive vias are formed, a patterned circuit layer formed on the surface of the insulating protective layer and electrically connected to the conductive vias in the openings of the insulating protective layer, and a dielectric layer formed on the insulating protective layer and on the surface of the patterned circuit layer, wherein a plurality of openings are formed in the dielectric layer to thereby expose parts of the patterned circuit layer. Accordingly, the present invention reduces the thickness of a circuit board, which reduces package size, improves product performance, and conforms to the developmental trend toward smaller electronic devices.

A method of fabricating electroplate solder on an organic circuit board for forming flip chip joints and board to board solder joints is disclosed. In the method, there is initially provided an organic circuit board including a surface bearing electrical circuitry that includes at least one contact pad. A solder mask layer that is placed on the board surface and patterned to expose the pad. Subsequently, a metal seed layer is deposited by physical vapor deposition, chemical vapor deposition, electroless plating with the use of catalytic copper, or electroplating with the use of catalytic copper, over the board surface. A resist layer with at least an opening located at the pad is formed over the metal seed layer. A solder material is then formed in the opening by eletroplating. Finally, the resist and the metal seed layer beneath the resist are removed.
