Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an apparatus that includes a multilayer substrate including a plurality of conductive layers and a plurality of insulating layers alternately stacked, and an electronic component having a first signal pad. The plurality of conductive layers include a first internal conductive layer having a first signal pattern, and a second internal conductive layer having a second signal pattern. The plurality of insulating layers include a first insulating layer positioned between the first and second internal conductive layers. The electronic component is embedded in the first insulating layer such that the first signal pad is connected to the first signal pattern. The first and second signal patterns are connected to each other by a first via conductor penetrating through the first insulating layer. The distance between the electronic component and the first via conductor is greater than a diameter of the first via conductor.
Abstract:
To enhance the degree of design freedom of an outermost conductor layer in an electronic component embedded substrate. An electronic component embedded substrate includes conductor layers, insulating layers each of which is positioned between adjacent two of the conductor layers, and an electronic component embedded in the insulating layer. The conductor layer is positioned in the uppermost layer and includes a plurality of terminal electrodes exposed to one surface side. The insulating layers are each made of a core material obtained by impregnating a core with a resin material, while the insulating layers are made of a resin material not containing a core. Since the insulating layer is made of a resin material not containing a core, the diameter of a via conductor formed in the insulating layer can be reduced. Thus, even when the plurality of terminal electrodes are formed in the conductor layer with a small pitch, the routing distance of wires can be reduced.
Abstract:
A sensor package substrate disclosed in the present specification has a mounting area in which a sensor chip is mounted and a controller chip connected to the sensor chip. A through hole is formed in the sensor package substrate so as to overlap the mounting area in a plan view and to penetrate the substrate from one surface to the other surface thereof. The mounting area and the controller chip overlap each other in a plan view. According to the present invention, by reducing the thickness of an insulating layer, it is possible not only to reduce the distance of a wiring for the sensor chip and controller chip, but also to reduce the area of the substrate.

Abstract:
An electronic component embedded substrate includes conductor layers L1 to L3, insulating layers 112 and 113 provided between the conductor layers L2 and L3, an insulating layer 114 provided between the conductor layers L1 and L2, a semiconductor embedded in the insulating layers 112 and 113, a via conductor 142 filling a via V, and a via conductor 143 filling a via 143a. The via 143a is provided at such a position that overlaps the via V and is shallower than the via V. The inner wall of the via 143a is larger in surface roughness than the inner wall of the via V. This makes voids less likely to occur in the via conductor 142 filling the deep via V and enhances adhesion between the via conductor 143 and the shallow via 143a that the via conductor 143 fills.

Disclosed herein is an IC embedded substrate that includes a core substrate having an opening, an IC chip provided in the opening, a lower insulating layer, and upper insulating layer. The IC chip and the core substrate is sandwiched between the lower insulating layer and the upper insulating layer. The upper insulating layer is formed in such a way as to fill a gap between a side surface of the IC chip and an inner peripheral surface of the opening of the core substrate. A first distance from the upper surface of the IC chip to an upper surface of the upper insulating layer is shorter than a second distance from the upper surface of the core substrate to the upper surface of the upper insulating layer.

The second coil pattern of the common mode filter is connected between the third and fourth outer electrodes. The electronic component is connected between the first and second outer electrodes and the fifth outer electrode.

A sensor package substrate disclosed in the present specification has a mounting area in which a sensor chip is mounted and a controller chip connected to the sensor chip. A through hole is formed in the sensor package substrate so as to overlap the mounting area in a plan view and to penetrate the substrate from one surface to the other surface thereof. The mounting area and the controller chip overlap each other in a plan view. According to the present invention, by reducing the thickness of an insulating layer, it is possible not only to reduce the distance of a wiring for the sensor chip and controller chip, but also to reduce the area of the substrate.
Abstract:
A sensor package substrate has through holes V1 and V2 at a position overlapping a sensor chip mounting area. The through hole V1 has a minimum inner diameter at a depth position D1, and the through hole V2 has a minimum inner diameter at a depth position D2 different from the depth position D1. Thus, since the plurality of through holes are formed at a position overlapping the sensor chip mounting area, the diameter of each of the through holes can be reduced. This makes foreign matters unlikely to enter through the through holes, and a reduction in the strength of the substrate is suppressed. In addition, since the depth position D1 and depth position D2 are located at different depth levels, it is possible to sufficiently maintain the strength of a part of the substrate that is positioned between the through holes V1 and V2.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a manufacturing method of a circuit board. The manufacturing method includes a first step for preparing a prepreg in which a core material is impregnated with an uncured resin. The prepreg has a through-hole surrounded by the core material and the resin so as to penetrate through the core material and the resin. The manufacturing method further includes a second step for housing a semiconductor IC in the through-hole, and a third step for pressing the prepreg so that a part of the resin flows into the through-hole to allow the semiconductor IC housed in the through-hole to be embedded in the resin.
