Be example only below, the method for circuit board manufacturing provided by the invention is described to make single layer board.In the method, other line pattern all is to make synchronously to form on " golden finger ", " false golden finger " and the circuit board.
In one embodiment, this method may further comprise the steps:
(A) commercially available dry film is attached on the circuit substrate that is covered with copper film, make egative film simultaneously, promptly make line pattern, on egative film, on near the electroplate lead wire " golden finger " zone, form " false golden finger ", described " false golden finger " extends along the direction away from " golden finger " matrix, and its initiating terminal is positioned at the lateral outer side of outermost single " golden finger " matrix, and " false golden finger " forms by described electroplate lead wire is widened on the side away from " golden finger " matrix.Described " false golden finger " adopts two, is arranged at " golden finger " regional both sides respectively.Second end on " golden finger " be located at two electroplate lead wires between " false golden finger " and be connected.
(B) egative film is covered the dry film surface, this step is identical with existing masking process;
(C) use the ultraviolet irradiation substrate, the dry film in the zone that needs making All other routes figure, " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger " is solidified, and uncured dry film is removed.This step is identical with existing developing process;
(D) adopt existing chemical etching process with the removal of the copper film outside conducting wire, " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger " zone, thereby on substrate, form All other routes figure, " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger ";
(E) dry film that will solidify by the mode of present removal dry film is removed (this technology needs to check whether made " false golden finger " meets design requirement after finishing);
(F) make solder mask on the substrate that is manufactured with conducting wire, " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger ", solder mask does not cover " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger ".After solder mask completes, check that whether " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger " are covered by solder mask, if the overlay area is arranged, should remove it.Here the manufacture craft of solder mask is identical with the manufacture craft of existing solder mask.
(G) paste again blue adhesive tape, window, moulding band, plating technologies such as " golden fingers "; utilize blue adhesive tape with " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger " regional occlusion in addition; adopt electroplating technology at " golden finger " matrix and " false golden finger " electroplating gold on surface layer, so that " golden finger " and " false golden finger " protected then.At last blue adhesive tape is removed.The gold layer here also can replace by nickel dam.The blue glue of the subsides adopted in this step, window, moulding band, plating " golden finger " and to remove the technology of blue adhesive tape same as the prior art.
(H) with edge milling machines electroplate lead wire 3 is removed (mill off), because " false golden finger " is the part of electroplate lead wire, therefore, " false golden finger " also is removed when removing electroplate lead wire.
The method of above-mentioned circuit board manufacturing is to widen with as " false golden finger " near electroplate lead wire of " golden finger " part, electroplate lead wire is the necessary part in the circuit board processing, but the circuit board completion of processing needs later on it removal, thereby is arranged on usually beyond the inner space of circuit board.Therefore,, do not influence the setting of " false golden finger " even the inner space of circuit board is limited yet.In other words, it is not enough and the problem of " false golden finger " can't be set that the method for circuit board manufacturing of the present invention has solved the inner space of the circuit board that may exist.
Be understandable that above execution mode only is the illustrative embodiments that adopts for principle of the present invention is described, yet the present invention is not limited thereto.For those skilled in the art, without departing from the spirit and substance in the present invention, can make various modification and improvement, these modification and improvement also are considered as protection scope of the present invention.
