Abstract
Photoimageable dielectric materials are coated on substrates, selectively exposed and developed, whereby small vias and interconnection openings are formed between adjacently spaced circuit layers. A conductive paste may be used to provide sequential layer interconnection and surface planarization. No adhesives are required in the manufacture of a circuit assembly having multiple circuit and dielectric layers, and the manufacturing method avoids the requirement for drilled through holes and blind vias.
