Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a manufacturing method of a double-sided printed circuit board, and more particularly, to a manufacturing method of a double-sided printed circuit board, capable of easily forming circuit patterns on upper and lower sides of an insulation layer, and easily providing electrical connection between the circuit patterns formed on the upper and lower sides of the insulation layer.

BACKGROUND ART

FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a procedure of forming circuit patterns on upper and lower sides of an insulation layer and electrically connecting the circuit patterns in a related art printed circuit board (PCB).

Referring to FIG. 1, a raw material (flexible copper clad laminate, FCCL) in which conductive layers are disposed on both sides of an insulation layer is prepared first in the related art PCB. It is illustrated that a polyimide film is used as the insulation layer, and a copper film is used as the conductive layer.

Subsequently, blanket etching is performed. Since a copper foil of the FCCL has a fixed thickness and a thickness of the FCCL is increased to or more when a through hole is plated, the FCCL becomes too thick in the case of intending to form micro-patterns, thus making it difficult to implement a precision circuit through etching. For this reason, before processing of through holes, blanket etching is performed to reduce the thickness of the FCCL.

Thereafter, the conductive layer and the insulation layer are processed to form through holes passing therethrough. Then, a pre-coating process is performed by exposing the conductive layer and the insulation layer, where the through holes are formed, to a conductive aqueous solution and thus forming a conductive film (shadow process).

Afterwards, a pre-copper electroplating process is performed by forming an electroless copper plating layer on the conductive layer and the insulation layer where the conductive film is formed, and an inner wall of the through hole is coated with a conductive copper thin film using palladium (Pd) catalytic reaction. The inner wall of the through hole is fully coated with conductive copper through electrolysis of copper.

Next, a photoresist layer is laminated, and then exposure, development, etching and delamination are performed to form a circuit with desired patterns, thereby completing a final circuit.

In this way, according to the related art PCB, a process of electrically connecting the circuit patterns formed on both sides of the insulation layer through the through holes is too complicated, leading to a decrease in productivity and an increase in failure rate.

The through hole may be formed after a non-conductive protective film is laminated on the second circuit pattern, and the protective film may be delaminated after the conductive material is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole.

When the first circuit pattern is formed, the insulation layer may be exposed to the outside in a region where the through hole is formed, and, when the second circuit pattern is formed, the insulation layer may be exposed to the outside in a region where the through hole is formed.

The through hole 4 in the step d) may be formed using a CNC drill bit or a laser source.

Here, the diameter of the through hole 4 may be at least in the range of 0.08 mm to 1 mm or may be 1 mm or more. For example, the through hole 4 may be formed to have a diameter of 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm.

A method for manufacturing the double-sided printed circuit board according to the present invention will now be described in more detail as an example, but such a description is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. The Ag conductive paste is printed on the upper side 1a of the polyimide film 1 using a silk-screen printing to have a thickness of about 3-7 μm, a minimum linewidth of 75 μm, and a line spacing of 75 μm, and then subjected to high-temperature heat treatment at about 150-200° C. to form a single tone pattern 2a. The lower side 1b, which is opposite to the single tone printed side, is printed with the same thickness and pattern spacing while keeping a position accuracy of about ±10 μm, and thereafter a double tone pattern 2b as a circuit pattern is formed under the same temperature condition as in the single tone pattern. A polymer adhesive is pressed to a thickness of 12 μm on the side, where the single or double tone pattern 2a or 2b is printed, at a rate of 5 M/min under a room temperature condition by using a protective film 3 composed of a PET film with a thickness of 75 μm. In a side opposite to the side where the protective film 3 is pressed, the through hole 4 is formed at a rate of about 80,000 to 150,000 rpm using a 0.2-0.3 μm CNC drill bit. The Ag conductive paste of which a viscosity is lower than that of the Ag conductive paste used in the single and double tone patterns 2a and 2b is printed to a thickness of about 1-3 μm on the inner wall of the through hole 4 in the side opposite to the side with the protective film 3 pressed, thereby forming the conductive line 5. Thereafter, heat treatment is performed at about 80° C. to 200° C. and then the protective film 3 is removed to manufacture a double-sided printed circuit board. The scope of the present invention is not limited to the numerical range and condition as described herein.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method of manufacturing a double-sided printed circuit board according to another embodiment of the present invention.

The method for manufacturing the double-sided printed circuit board with reference to FIG. 3 includes forming first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30, forming a through hole 40, and forming a conductive material 50 on an inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40.

The method of manufacturing the printed circuit board according to the present invention begins with forming desired patterns first.

The first circuit pattern 20 is a patterned circuit using a conductive material in order to form a circuit on an upper side of an insulation layer 10. In the current embodiment, the first circuit pattern 20 is printed using a known paste such as silver (Ag), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and aluminum (Al). Of course, the method of forming the first circuit pattern 20 is not limited to the printing method. The insulation layer 10 uses a known film such as a polyimide film.

The second circuit pattern 30 is a patterned circuit using a conductive material in order to form a circuit on a lower side of the insulation layer 10. In the current embodiment, like the first circuit pattern 20, the second circuit pattern 30 is printed using a known paste such as silver (Ag), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and aluminum (Al). Of course, the method of forming the second circuit pattern 30 is also not limited to the printing method.

Thereafter, forming of the through hole 40 is performed. The through hole 40 passes through the insulation layer 10 vertically. In the current embodiment, referring to FIG. 3, when the first circuit pattern 20 is formed, the insulation layer 10 is exposed to the outside in a region where the through hole 40 is formed. Also, when the second circuit pattern 30 is formed, the insulation layer 10 is exposed to the outside in a region where the through hole 40 is formed.

Thus, the first circuit pattern 20 provided in an upper portion of a region where the through hole 40 is formed, and the circuit pattern 30 provided in a lower portion thereof are pattered in consideration of the through hole 40 to be formed later. Accordingly, through hole 40 is formed by processing the insulation layer 10 to have a hole substantially passing therethrough.

Thereafter, forming of the conductive material 50 on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40 is performed.

In the current embodiment, the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40 is printed using a known paste such as silver (Ag), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and aluminum (Al). Through the procedure as described above, a printed circuit board is formed in which the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are electrically connected by the through hole 40.

In accordance with the method of forming a double-sided printed circuit board according to the present invention, the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are formed first, then the through hole 40 is formed, and thereafter the conductive material 50 is formed on the through hole 40 so as to electrically connect the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30. Therefore, the inventive method makes it possible to realize a printed circuit board with a simple process compared to a related art printed circuit board which could be obtained through a complicated process so as to form circuit patterns electrically connected by the through hole.

According to the embodiment of the present invention, a protective film 60 may be laminated before the conductive material 50 is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40.

Referring to FIG. 3, after the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are formed, the non-conductive protective film 60 is laminated on the second circuit pattern 30. In the current embodiment, a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film is used as the protective film 60. The protective film 60 is provided for the purpose of preventing the conductive material 50 from penetrating into the second circuit pattern 30 when the conductive material 50 is printed on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40 during a subsequent process.

That is, when the conductive material 50 is printed on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole without use of the protective film 60, the conductive material 50 may penetrate into the second circuit pattern 30 to cause the printed circuit board to be failed if an excessive amount of the conductive material 50 is used. The protective film 60 prevents the conductive material 50 from spreading over into the second circuit pattern 30.

As described above, after the protective film 60 is laminated, forming of the through hole 40 and printing of the conductive material 50 on the through hole 40 are performed as illustrated in FIG. 3, and then a delamination process of removing the protective film 60 is performed.

Through the procedure as above, the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are finally formed on the upper and lower sides of the insulation layer 10, and the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are electrically connected by means of the conductive material 50 formed on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40.

Also, according to the current embodiment, heat treatment is performed after the conductive material 50 is printed on the through hole 40. While the heat treatment is performed after the conductive material 50 is printed on the through hole 40, the conductive material is cured and shrunk.

Referring to FIG. 4, a conductive plating layer 70 may be formed on the first and second circuit patterns 20 and and the conductive material 50 formed on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40.

In the current embodiment, the plating layer 70 may be a copper layer formed by electroless or electrolytic copper plating. The plating layer 70 may be plated such that its thickness is adjusted in consideration of an amount of current applied and consumed.

Since electrical conductivity increases due to the plating layer 70, it is possible to form the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 to a thickness only enough to keep properties of a seed layer. If the amount of current applied and consumed is large, it is desirable to form the plating layer 70 with an appropriate thickness.

In this way, the method of forming the double-sided printed circuit board according to the embodiment of the present invention enables the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 of the printed circuit board to be electrically connected through a simplified process, by rapidly forming the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30, forming the through hole 40 connecting the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30, and then printing the conductive material 50 on the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 40 for electrical connection between the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30.

Therefore, a processing time is shortened to improve productivity. In addition, a failure rate, which is relatively high in a related art complicated process, may be significantly reduced by virtue of a simplified process, and the quality of products is thus enhanced.

FIGS. 5 to 9 illustrate a method of forming a precision printed circuit board according to another embodiment of the present invention, in which circuit patterns and a conductive line inside a through hole are formed.

Referring to FIG. 5, first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are respectively formed on upper and lower sides of an insulation layer 10, then first and second protective films 61 and 62 are laminated on the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30, and thereafter a through hole 40 is processed.

Thereafter, printing of the conductive material 50 on the through hole 40 is performed, and the first and second protective films 61 and 62 are then delaminated. In the current embodiment, heat treatment is performed after the conductive material 50 is printed on the through hole 40, and the conductive material 50 printed on inner surface of the through hole 40 is cured and shrunk during the heat treatment.

FIG. 6 illustrates, in addition to the embodiment of FIG. 5, that the conductive plating layer 70 may be further provided on the conductive material 50 formed in the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 and the through hole 40. The function and effect of the plating layer 70 have been described above, and thus further detailed description will be skipped herein.

Referring to FIG. 7, first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are respectively formed on upper and lower sides of an insulation layer 10, and the through hole 40 is then formed. Afterwards, a non-conductive protective film 60 is laminated on the second circuit pattern 30, then a conductive material 50 is printed on an inner surface of the through hole 40, and thereafter the protective film 60 is delaminated.

In the current embodiment, heat treatment is performed after the conductive material 50 is printed on the inner surface of the through hole 40, and the conductive material 50 is cured and shrunk during the heat treatment.

FIG. 8 illustrates, in addition to the embodiment of FIG. 6, that the conductive plating layer 70 may be further formed on the conductive material 50 formed in the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 and the through hole 40. The function and effect of the plating layer 70 have been described above, and thus further detailed description will be skipped herein.

Referring to FIG. 9, the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 are formed on upper and lower sides of the insulation layer 10, the first non-conductive protective film 61 is laminated on the second circuit pattern 30. Then, the through hole 40 is formed, and the insulation layer 10 where the through hole 40 is formed is turned over and a second protective film 62 is laminated on the first circuit pattern 20.

Subsequently, a printing process of filling the conductive material 50 into the through hole 40 is performed, and thereafter, the first and second protective films 61 and 62 are delaminated. In the current embodiment, heat treatment is performed after the conductive material 50 is printed on inner surface of the through hole 40, and the conductive material 50 is cured and shrunk during the heat treatment.

FIG. 10 illustrates, in addition to the embodiment of FIG. 8, that a conductive plating layer 70 may be further provided on the conductive material 50 formed in the first and second circuit patterns 20 and 30 and the through hole 40. The function and effect of the plating layer 70 have been described above, and thus further detailed description will be skipped herein.

A method of forming a precision printed circuit board according to FIGS. 5 to 10 are similar in function and effect to the method in the embodiment of FIG. 4, and thus further detailed description will be skipped herein.

While the present invention has been shown and described in connection with the exemplary embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
