Abstract
The present invention is directed to the use of ordered polymers as a substrate material for the preparation of printed wire boards (PWB). In preferred embodiments, the PWB of the present invention comprises a generic, high density, organic multilayer PWB capable of being employed as a high density leadless perimeter and in grid array ceramic chip packages. Specific chip package density requirements are 0.020-in. centers with up to 300 input/outputs (I/Os) for perimeter type packages and 0.050-in. center grid array type packages with up to 240 I/Os per device. In its most preferred embodiments, the present invention is directed to a method of forming a PBT PWB substrate layer of 0.0025 in. or less in thickness. Another preferred aspect of the present invention concerns the discovery that a copper layer can be bonded to a PBT film substrate with a strength comparable to existing PWB materials.
