Fig. 1-14 show schematic cross-sectional views of a method of manufacturing a circuit board at various stages of the manufacturing process according to various embodiments of the invention. First, as shown in fig. 1, a substrate 110 is provided. The substrate 110 includes a resin layer 120 and a primer layer 130. In some embodiments, the resin layer 120 is located on the bottom layer 130. The resin layer 120 includes a first surface 121 and a second surface 122, wherein the first surface 121 is in contact with the base layer 130. The first face 121 is opposite to the second face 122.
In some embodiments, the bottom layer 130 includes a core layer 131, a first copper layer 132, a second copper layer 134, and a release layer 133. The first copper layer 132 is located on the core layer 131, the release layer 133 is located on the first copper layer 132, the second copper layer 134 is located on the release layer 133, and the resin layer 120 is located on the second copper layer 134. In other words, the release layer 133 is located between the first copper layer 132 and the second copper layer 134. The second copper layer 134 is in contact with the first side 121 of the resin layer 120. In some embodiments, holes 123 may be formed using laser drilling. In other embodiments, the material of the resin layer 120 is a photosensitive dielectric material, and thus the hole 123 can be formed by exposure and development.
Then, as shown in fig. 2, a plurality of holes 123 are formed in the resin layer 120, wherein the holes 123 penetrate through the resin layer 120. Further, in some embodiments, aperture 123 is frustoconical. In the hole 123, the aperture R1 on the side close to the first face 121 is smaller than the aperture R2 on the side close to the second face 122. In some embodiments, the aperture 123 exposes a portion of the second copper layer 134.
Next, as shown in fig. 3, a first metal layer 140 is deposited in the hole 123, wherein the first metal layer 140 contacts the bottom layer 130 and fills a portion of the hole 123. In other words, the first metal layer 140 does not fill the entire hole 123. Since the hole 123 exposes a portion of the second copper layer 134, the first metal layer 140 is in contact with the exposed second copper layer 134. In some embodiments, first metal layer 140 is made using a metal other than copper. In more detail, the first metal layer 140 uses a metal having an etching selectivity with copper. In some embodiments, the first metal layer 140 is tin. In other embodiments, the first metal layer 140 may be deposited using electroplating.
Thereafter, as shown in fig. 4, a second metal layer 150 is deposited on the first metal layer 140, wherein the second metal layer 150 is located in the hole 123. In some embodiments, the second metal layer 150 may be made of a material capable of preventing the first metal layer 140 from interacting with copper, wherein the second metal layer 150 may be a metal or a conductive material. In still other embodiments, the second metal layer 150 may be deposited using electroplating. In some embodiments, the first metal layer 140 and the second metal layer 150 do not fill the hole 123. In some embodiments, the thickness D2 of the second metal layer 150 is less than the thickness D1 of the first metal layer 140.
Then, a patterned metal layer is formed on the second metal layer 150. Fig. 5-9 illustrate cross-sectional views of forming the patterned metal layer, according to some embodiments of the invention.
Referring to fig. 5, a seed layer 160 is formed on the resin layer 120 and the second metal layer 150. In some embodiments, the seed layer 160 is conformally deposited on the resin layer 120 and the second metal layer 150. The seed layer 160 covers the surfaces of the resin layer 120 and the second metal layer 150. In some embodiments, the seed layer 160 is copper.
In fig. 6, a patterned photoresist 165 is formed on the seed layer 160. In further detail, the patterned photoresist 165 covers only a portion of the seed layer 160, and exposes another portion of the seed layer 160. In some embodiments, forming patterned photoresist 165 includes steps of deposition, exposure, and development.
Next, in fig. 7, a metal block 170 is deposited on the seed layer 160 exposed outside the patterned photoresist 165. Part of the metal block 170 is located in the hole 123, and the rest part of the metal block 170 is located on the second surface 122 adjacent to the hole 123. In certain embodiments, metal block 170 is copper.
Then, in fig. 8, the patterned photoresist 165 is removed. Patterned photoresist 165 may be removed using any suitable method. After removing the patterned photoresist 165, a portion of the seed layer 160 is exposed.
In fig. 9, the seed layer 160 exposed outside the metal bump 170 is removed. Removing the seed layer 160 exposed outside of the metal blocks 170 may include performing an etching process on the seed layer 160. The metal slug 170 and the remaining seed layer 160 constitute a patterned metal layer 180. In some embodiments, patterned metal layer 180 is copper. The patterned metal layer 180 extends from each of the holes 123 to the second surface 122 of the resin layer 120. To be further described, a portion of the patterned metal layer 180 is disposed in the hole 123, and another portion of the patterned metal layer 180 is disposed outside the hole 123 (on the second surface 122). In other embodiments, any suitable process may be used to form patterned metal layer 180. That is, the process shown in fig. 5-9 is not limited to the process of forming the patterned metal layer 180.
After forming the patterned metal layer 180, a build-up process may be performed. As shown in fig. 10, a build-up layer is built up over patterned metal layer 180 to form build-up portion 185. In some embodiments, the build-up portion 185 surrounds the patterned metal layer 180 such that the patterned metal layer 180 is not etched away in a subsequent etching process. It is to be understood that the build-up portion 185 shown in FIG. 10 is merely an exemplary structure, and that the build-up portion 185 may have different structures as desired. In addition, the build-up process is selective, and the circuit board manufacturing method may not include the build-up process.
In fig. 11, the first copper layer 132 is separated from the second copper layer 134. Since the release layer 133 is disposed between the first copper layer 132 and the second copper layer 134, the two layers can be separated by the release layer 133. The separated second copper layer 134 and the resin layer 120 are still in contact with each other.
Next, as shown in fig. 12, after the first copper layer 132 and the second copper layer 134 are separated by the release layer 133, the second copper layer 134 is etched. It is noted that fig. 12 is shown rotated 180 deg. for clarity of illustration. After etching the second copper layer 134, the first surface 121 of the resin layer 120 is exposed. Since the build-up portion 185 surrounds the patterned metal layer 180, the patterned metal layer 180 is not etched when the second copper layer 134 is etched.
Referring to fig. 13, a portion of the resin layer 120 is removed from the first surface 121 of the resin layer 120. In some embodiments, an etching process may be used to remove a portion of the resin layer 120. After the first side 121 of the resin layer 120 is etched, the thickness D3 of the resin layer 120 is reduced. In other words, the resin layer 120 is etched to expose the first metal layer 140, such that the first metal layer 140 protrudes from the resin layer 120. In some embodiments, etching the resin layer 120 includes forming a void 190 between the resin layer 120 and the first metal layer 140. The voids 190 prevent a subsequent bonding process from inadvertently electrically connecting adjacent first metal layers 140, i.e., so-called "bridging".
Referring to fig. 14, the first metal layer 140 is reflowed. In some embodiments, reflowed first metal layer 140 fills voids 190. In other words, the gap 190 provides a space for the first metal layer 140 to flow during reflow, so as to prevent the first metal layer 140 from flowing out of the hole 123 and causing an unexpected electrical connection.
The circuit board manufacturing method provided by the invention can manufacture the circuit board with smaller bump pitch. Since the operations of forming the holes, the first metal layer and the second metal layer do not include exposure and development, the exposure and alignment margin is not required to be reserved, and thus the density of the device can be greatly increased. In some embodiments, the pitch of the first metal layer may be reduced to 40 μm.
The present invention has been described in detail with respect to certain embodiments, but other embodiments are possible. Therefore, the spirit and scope of the appended claims should not be limited to the description of the embodiments contained herein.
While the foregoing is directed to embodiments of the present invention, other and further embodiments of the invention may be devised without departing from the basic scope thereof, and the scope thereof is determined by the claims that follow.
