Claims
- 1. A circuit board comprising:
- a thermally conductive metal substrate, having a planar major surface;
- an insulating layer having a first predetermined pattern and located entirely on said planar major surface such that a portion of said planar major surface is exposed through an entire length of an opening in said insulating layer, said portion of said planar major surface of said metal substrate exposed through said opening of said insulating layer comprises a recessed portion;
- a first conductor layer, having a second predetermined pattern with an opening therein and located on said insulating layer a second conductor layer having a third predetermined pattern with an opening therein is provided on said first conductor layer via an intermediate support member to enable electrical connection of an electronic component thereto, said second conductor layer having a portion thereof in direct contact with said first conductor layer; and
- a metallized layer provided at least on the entire length of said portion of said metal substrate exposed through said opening in said insulating layer;
- said electronic component mounted on said metallized layer in said opening of said insulating layer and electrically connected to said first conductor layer.
- 2. A circuit board in accordance with claim 1, further comprising:
- a plurality of conductors connected to said metallized layer and to said electronic component.
- 3. A circuit board in accordance with claim 1, wherein:
- said electronic component comprises a semiconductor device.
- 4. A circuit board comprising:
- a thermally conductive metal substrate, having a planar major surface;
- an insulating layer, having a first predetermined pattern and located entirely on said planar major surface such that a portion of said planar major surface is exposed through an entire length of an opening in said insulating layer to enable mounting of an electronic component in said open space of said insulating layer;
- a first conductor layer, having a second predetermined pattern with an opening therein and located on said insulating layer; and
- a second conductor layer having a third predetermined pattern with an opening therein is provided on said first conductor layer via an intermediate support member to enable electrical connection of said electronic component thereto, said second conductor layer having a portion thereof in direct contact with said first conductor layer.
- 5. A circuit board comprising:
- a metal substrate having a planar major surface;
- an insulating layer located entirely on said planar major surface of said metal substrate and having an opening wherein a portion of said planar major surface is exposed through an entire length of said opening;
- a first metal layer located at least on the entire length of said opening of said insulating layer and covering said portion of said planar major surface exposed therethrough, said metal layer being located to enable at least one electronic component to be mounted thereon;
- a conductor layer having a predetermined pattern with an opening provided therein and located on said insulating layer and a second metal layer having a predetermined pattern with an opening therein is provided on said conductor layer via an intermediate support member to enable electrical connection of said at least one electronic component thereto, said second metal layer having a portion thereof in direct contact with said conductor layer.
- 6. A circuit board in accordance with claim 5, wherein:
- an electronic component is joined and mounted fixedly on said first metal layer located in said opening of said insulating layer.
- 7. A circuit board in accordance with claim 6, wherein:
- a plurality of conductors are attached to said second metal layer and to said at least one electronic component.
- 8. A circuit board in accordance with claim 6, wherein:
- said at least one electronic component includes a semiconductor device.
