Description

  The present invention relates to an electronic component and a laminated circuit using a prepreg and a substrate, and more particularly to an electronic component, particularly a module, which is suitable for use in a high frequency region (100 MHz or more) and has an excellent dielectric constant. .

  In recent years, there has been a remarkable trend toward miniaturization and high-density mounting methods in the field of electronic devices for communication, consumer use, industrial use, and so on. Properties, electrical properties, and moldability are being demanded.

  As a high-frequency electronic component or a high-frequency multilayer substrate, a substrate in which sintered ferrite or sintered ceramic is multilayered and formed on a substrate is generally known. Making these materials into a multi-layer substrate has been conventionally used because of its merit of miniaturization.

  However, when these sintered ferrites and sintered ceramics are used, there are many firing steps and thick film printing steps, and there are many problems specific to sintered materials, such as cracks and warpage during firing, and there are many problems with printed circuit boards. There are many problems such as generation of cracks due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient of the resin, and the demand for resin-based materials is increasing year by year.

  However, it is extremely difficult to obtain a sufficient dielectric constant by itself with a resin-based material, and it is also difficult to improve the magnetic permeability in conjunction with this. For this reason, an electronic component that simply uses a resin material cannot obtain sufficient characteristics and has a large shape, making it difficult to reduce the size and thickness.

  Also, a method of compositing a ceramic powder with a resin material is disclosed in, for example, JP-A-10-270255, JP-A-11-192620, and JP-A-8-69712. In each case, no sufficient dielectric constant or magnetic permeability is obtained. If the filling rate of the ceramic powder is increased to increase the dielectric constant, there is a problem that the strength is reduced and the powder is liable to be broken during handling or processing.

  In addition, since the material used in these documents is crushed powder, there is a drawback that a mold is quickly worn during kneading and molding. In addition, in the case of crushed powder, since the shape and size of the particles are varied, the dispersibility and the filling rate are not stable, it is difficult to increase the dielectric constant, and the dielectric constant and the magnetic permeability are difficult to stabilize. was there. Further, when crushed powder is used, there is a disadvantage that the withstand voltage is reduced due to the shape of the particles.

As attempts to disperse the spherical magnetic powder in the resin, Patent Document 4 (Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-56846), Patent Document 5 (Patent No. 2830071), Patent Document 6 (Patent No. 2876088), and Patent Document 7 (Japanese Patent No. 2893531) and the like. However, only the ferrite magnetic powder is disclosed in these documents, and no studies have been made on other materials or on magnetic powder and other materials.

An object of the present invention is to provide an electronic component, particularly a module, which has a higher dielectric constant than conventional materials, does not decrease in strength, is small, has high performance, and is excellent in overall electric characteristics.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic component, in particular, a module, which can suppress lot-to-lot fluctuations in electrical characteristics of a material used, particularly a dielectric constant, and can further suppress abrasion of a mold during material formation.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic component having a high withstand voltage, particularly a module.

The above object is achieved by the following configuration of the present invention.
(1) A structure in which constituent layers having a resin are laminated to form a multilayer structure, and at least one of the constituent layers is formed by dispersing at least a dielectric substance having a projected shape of a circle, a flat circle, or an ellipse in a resin. A module that is a layer of a composite dielectric material.
(2) The module according to (1), further including a conductor layer.
(3) The module according to (1) or (2), wherein the dielectric having a circular projected shape has an average particle diameter of 1 to 50 μm and a sphericity of 0.9 to 1.0.
(4) The module according to any one of (1) to (3), wherein the composite dielectric material contains a magnetic powder.
(5) The module according to any one of (1) to (4), wherein the composite dielectric material contains crushed powder.
(6) The module according to any one of (1) to (5) above, wherein the composite dielectric material has a glass cloth embedded therein.
(7) The module according to any one of the above (1) to (6), which has two or more different composite dielectric materials.
(8) The module according to any one of (1) to (7), wherein at least one composite dielectric material layer contains one or more flame retardants.

  According to the present invention, there is provided an electronic component, particularly a module, which has a higher dielectric constant than conventional materials, does not decrease in strength, is small, has high performance, and has excellent overall electrical characteristics, and provides electrical characteristics of materials used. In particular, it is possible to provide an electronic component, particularly a module, which can suppress a lot-to-lot variation in dielectric constant and suppress abrasion of a mold during material formation, and to provide an electronic component having a high withstand voltage, particularly, a module.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
The electronic component of the present invention has a composite dielectric material in which at least a dielectric material having a projected shape of a circle, a flat circle, or an ellipse is dispersed in a resin.

  As described above, by setting the projected shape of the dielectric dispersed in the resin to be a circle, a flat circle, or an ellipse, the surface of the dielectric particles becomes smooth, the filling rate is improved, and the dispersibility is improved. In addition, the resin material is uniformly present around the dielectric, so that the withstand voltage and strength of the hybrid material are improved. In addition, damage to the mold during molding is reduced, and the life of the mold is extended.

  In particular, the dielectric is preferably a spherical one in which the projected shape is a circle. The average particle size is preferably from 0.1 to 50 µm, particularly preferably from 0.5 to 20 µm, and the sphericity is preferably from 0.9 to 1.0, particularly preferably from 0.95 to 1.0.

  If the average particle size is smaller than 0.1 μm, the surface area of the particles increases, the viscosity during dispersion and mixing and the thixotropy increase, and it becomes difficult to increase the filling rate, and it becomes difficult to knead with the resin. On the other hand, if it is larger than 50 μm, it becomes difficult to perform uniform dispersion and mixing, sedimentation becomes severe, and the mixture becomes uneven, and it becomes difficult to obtain a dense molded body when molding a composition having a large powder content. .

  Further, when the sphericity is less than 0.9, for example, when molding a molded body such as a dust core, it becomes difficult to uniformly disperse the powder, and desired characteristics such as causing a variation in dielectric characteristics are obtained. It becomes difficult to obtain, and variation between lots and products increases. The sphericity may be obtained by arbitrarily measuring a plurality of samples, and the average value may be the above value.

  In the present invention, the term “spherical” in which the “projected shape is circular” includes not only a spherical shape with a smooth surface but also a polyhedron that is very close to a perfect circle. That is, the sphere includes a polyhedron having isotropic symmetry surrounded by a stable crystal plane represented by a Wulff model and having a sphericity close to one. The "sphericity" in the present invention is represented by Wadell's practical sphericity, that is, the ratio of the diameter of a circle equal to the projected area of a particle to the diameter of the smallest circle circumscribing the projected image of the particle.

  In the present invention, even if the sphericity of the dielectric material is smaller than 0.9, it is effective as long as the particles have a smooth surface and a projected shape of a circle, a flat circle, or an ellipse. By having such a smooth surface, the wear of the mold can be reduced. In this case, the sphericity is larger than 0.9, which is more effective than a shape having sharp projections (sharp edges).

  In the present invention, crushed powder may be further contained in addition to the dielectric having the above-mentioned shape. By containing the crushed dielectric powder, the filling rate can be further improved. In this case, although the effect of suppressing the abrasion of the mold is slightly inferior, the electrical characteristics such as the dielectric characteristics can be improved by improving the filling rate. Therefore, a suitable mode may be selected according to the required characteristics.

  When crushed powder is used, the particle size is preferably 0.01 to 100 μm, particularly preferably 0.01 to 50 μm, and the average particle size is preferably 1 to 50 μm. With such a particle size, the dispersibility of the crushed powder is improved, and the effect of the present invention is improved. On the other hand, when the particle size of the crushed powder is smaller than this, the specific surface area increases, and it becomes difficult to increase the filling rate. On the other hand, if it is larger than this, it tends to settle when it is made into a paste, making it difficult to uniformly disperse it. Also, when it is attempted to form a thin substrate or prepreg, it becomes difficult to obtain a smooth surface. It is practically difficult to make the particle size too small, and the limit is about 0.01 μm.

  The dielectric material powder used in the present invention is preferably a ceramic powder, and may be a ceramic powder having a higher relative dielectric constant and Q than a resin serving as a dispersion medium in a high frequency band, and may be used in two or more types.

  In particular, the ceramic powder used in the present invention preferably has a relative dielectric constant of 10 to 20,000 and a dielectric loss tangent of 0.05 or less.

In order to obtain a relatively high dielectric constant, it is particularly preferable to use the following materials.
Titanium-barium-neodymium ceramics, titanium-barium-tin ceramics, lead-calcium ceramics, titanium dioxide ceramics, barium titanate ceramics, lead titanate ceramics, strontium titanate ceramics, calcium titanate ceramics , Bismuth titanate ceramics, magnesium titanate ceramics, CaWO ₄ ceramics, Ba (Mg, Nb) O ₃ ceramics, Ba (Mg, Ta) O ₃ ceramics, Ba (Co, Mg, Nb) O ₃ Ceramics, Ba (Co, Mg, Ta) O ₃ ceramics. The titanium dioxide-based ceramics include those containing only a small amount of additives in addition to those containing only titanium dioxide, and are those in which the crystal structure of titanium dioxide is maintained. The same applies to other ceramics. In particular, the titanium dioxide ceramic preferably has a rutile structure.

  In order to obtain high Q without increasing the dielectric constant too much, it is preferable to use the following materials.

  Silica, alumina, zirconia, potassium titanate whiskers, calcium titanate whiskers, barium titanate whiskers, zinc oxide whiskers, glass chops, glass beads, carbon fibers, magnesium oxide (talc).

  These may be used alone or as a mixture of two or more. When two or more kinds are used as a mixture, the mixing ratio is arbitrary.

  Specifically, when a relatively high dielectric constant is not required, the following materials are preferable.

Mg ₂ SiO ₄ [ε = 7, Q = 20000], Al ₂ O ₃ [ε = 9.8, Q = 40000], MgTiO ₃ [ε = 17, Q = 22000], ZnTiO ₃ [ε = 26, Q = 800], Zn ₂ TiO ₄ [ε = 15, Q = 700], TiO ₂ [ε = 104, Q = 15000], CaTiO ₃ [ε = 170, Q = 1800], SrTiO ₃ [ε = 255, Q = 700], SrZrO ₃ [ε = 30, Q = 1200], BaTi ₂ O ₅ [ε = 42, Q = 5700], BaTi ₄ O ₉ [ε = 38, Q = 9000], Ba ₂ Ti ₉ O ₂₀ [Ε = 39, Q = 9000], Ba ₂ (Ti, Sn) ₉ O ₂₀ [ε = 37, Q = 5000], ZrTiO ₄ [ε = 39, Q = 7000], (Zr, Sn) TiO ₄ [ ε = 38, Q = 7000] , BaNd 2 Ti 5 O 14 [ε = 83, Q = _{100], BaSm 2 TiO 14 [} ε = 74, Q = 2400], Bi 2 O 3 -BaO-Nd 2 O 3 -TiO 2 system [ε = 88, Q = 2000 ], PbO-BaO-Nd 2 O 3 -TiO ₂ system [ε = 90, Q = 5200], (Bi ₂ O ₃ , PbO) -BaO-Nd ₂ O ₃ -TiO ₂ system [ε = 105, Q = 2500], La ₂ Ti ₂ O ₇ [ ε = 44, Q = 4000], Nd ₂ Ti ₂ O ₇ [ε = 37, Q = 1100], (Li, Sm) TiO ₃ [ε = 81, Q = 2050], Ba (Mg _1/3 Ta _{2) / 3} ) O ₃ [ε = 25, Q = 35000], Ba (Zn _1/3 Ta _2/3 ) O ₃ [ε = 30, Q = 14000], Ba (Zn _1/3 Nb _2/3 ) O ₃ [ε = 41, Q = 9200], Sr (Zn _1/3 Nb _2/3 ) O ₃ [ε = 40, Q = 4000] and the like.

More preferably, the composition has the following composition as a main component.
TiO ₂ , CaTiO ₃ , SrTiO ₃ , BaO—Nd ₂ O ₃ —TiO ₂ system, Bi ₂ O ₃ —BaO—Nd ₂ O ₃ —TiO ₂ system, BaTi ₄ O ₉ , Ba ₂ Ti ₉ O ₂₀ , Ba ₂ (Ti, Sn) ₉ O ₂₀ system, MgO-TiO ₂ system, ZnO-TiO ₂ system, MgO-SiO ₂ system, Al ₂ O _{3 and the} like.

  On the other hand, when a relatively high dielectric constant is required, the following materials are preferable.

BaTiO ₃ [ε = 1500], (Ba, Pb) TiO ₃ [ε = 6000], Ba (Ti, Zr) O ₃ [ε = 9000] (Ba, Sr) TiO ₃ [ε = 7000].

More preferably, it is selected from a dielectric powder having the following composition as a main component.
BaTiO ₃ , Ba (Ti, Zr) O ₃ system.

  The ceramics powder may be a single crystal or polycrystalline powder.

  The content of the ceramics is, when the total amount of the resin and the ceramics powder is 100% by volume, the content of the ceramics powder is 10% by volume or more and less than 65% by volume, preferably 20% by volume or more and 60% by volume or less. Range.

  If the amount of the ceramic powder is 65% by volume or more, a dense composition cannot be obtained. In addition, Q may be greatly reduced as compared with the case where no ceramics powder is added. On the other hand, when the content of the ceramic powder is less than 10% by volume, the effect of containing the ceramic powder is not so much seen.

  In the electronic component of the present invention, by appropriately setting each component within the above range, the dielectric constant obtained from the resin alone can be increased, and a relative dielectric constant and a high Q can be obtained as required. It becomes possible.

  In order to granulate the ceramic powder into a spherical shape or the like, a known spray dryer granulation method or the like can be used. Specifically, the mixed powder for formation is dispersed and mixed in a dispersion medium, prepared into a slurry of a predetermined concentration, then spray-dried into a spherical granulated product, and then obtained by firing the granulated product. .

  The resin used for the electronic component of the present invention is not particularly limited, and can be appropriately selected from resin materials having excellent moldability, workability, adhesiveness at the time of lamination, and electrical characteristics. Specifically, a thermosetting resin, a thermoplastic resin, or the like is preferable.

  Examples of the thermosetting resin include epoxy resin, phenol resin, unsaturated polyester resin, vinyl ester resin, polyimide resin, polyphenylene ether (oxide) resin, bismaleimide triazine (cyanate ester) resin, fumarate resin, polybutadiene resin, and polyvinyl benzyl ether. Resins. Examples of the thermoplastic resin include an aromatic polyester resin, a polyphenylene sulfide resin, a polyethylene terephthalate resin, a polybutylene terephthalate resin, a polyethylene sulfide resin, a polyether ether ketone resin, a polytetrafluoroethylene resin, and a graft resin. Among these, phenol resin, epoxy resin, low dielectric constant epoxy resin, polybutadiene resin, BT resin, polyvinyl benzyl ether resin and the like are particularly preferable as the base resin.

  These resins may be used alone or as a mixture of two or more. The mixing ratio when using two or more kinds in combination is arbitrary.

  In the present invention, an electronic component may be configured by a laminate using two or more different composite dielectric materials. Further, two or more different dispersion materials may be contained. As described above, two or more kinds of different composite dielectric materials are combined, and two or more kinds of different powders, or even the same kind of powder having different composition, electric (dielectric constant, etc.) and magnetic properties and resin are mixed. By mixing, it is easy to adjust the dielectric constant and the magnetic permeability, and the characteristics can be adjusted to various electronic components. In particular, by setting the dielectric constant and the magnetic permeability that have the wavelength shortening effect to optimal values, the device can be reduced in size and thickness. In addition, by combining a material having good electric characteristics in a relatively low frequency region and a material having good electric characteristics in a relatively high frequency region, good electric characteristics can be obtained in a wide frequency band. be able to.

  Further, when a substrate or an electronic component is formed using such a hybrid layer, adhesion and patterning with a copper foil can be realized without using an adhesive or the like, and multilayering can be realized. Such patterning and multi-layering can be performed in the same process as a normal substrate manufacturing process, so that cost reduction and workability can be improved. Further, the electronic component using the substrate thus obtained has high strength and improved high-frequency characteristics.

The wavelength shortening effect can be obtained by increasing the dielectric constant. That is, the effective wavelength λ on the substrate is
λ = λ0 / (ε · μ) ^1/2
Given by Here, λ0 is the actual wavelength, and ε and μ are the permittivity and the magnetic permeability of the electronic component or substrate. Therefore, for example, when designing an electronic component and a circuit of λ / 4, by increasing ε and μ of the members constituting the circuit, a portion requiring the length λ / 4 can be calculated by the square root of the product of ε and μ. It can be reduced by the divided value. Therefore, the size of the electronic component and the substrate can be reduced by increasing at least ε of the material of the electronic component and the substrate.

  Further, by combining a material having good electric characteristics in a relatively low frequency region and a material having good electric characteristics in a relatively high frequency region, a wide frequency band, specifically 1 to Good electrical characteristics such as HPF can be obtained in a wide frequency band of 2000 MHz, particularly 50 to 1000 MHz.

Specifically, when only the wavelength shortening effect is considered, the purpose can be achieved by mixing a high dielectric constant material with a resin material. However, such high-permittivity materials are not so excellent in high-frequency characteristics, and therefore need to be compensated for. Therefore, by using a magnetic material having excellent high-frequency characteristics, for example, carbonyl iron, together with a high dielectric constant material, for example, BaTiO ₃ , BaZrO _3, etc., desired characteristics can be obtained even in a high-frequency region.

  Such electronic components requiring wavelength reduction and high frequency characteristics include a multilayer filter, a balun transformer, a dielectric filter, a coupler, an antenna, a VCO (voltage controlled oscillator), an RF (high frequency) unit, and a resonator. Can be.

  In addition, when one material is used to enhance one electrical characteristic, the other material can compensate for the insufficient electrical characteristic.

  In the electronic component of the present invention, the composite dielectric material of the dielectric and the resin may further include one or more magnetic substances.

  Ferrite which is a magnetic material is a Mn-Mg-Zn-based, Ni-Zn-based, Mn-Zn-based or the like, and particularly a single crystal thereof, or a Mn-Mg-Zn-based or Ni-Zn-based is preferable. .

  Examples of the ferromagnetic metal that is a magnetic material include carbonyl iron, an iron-silicon alloy, an iron-aluminum-silicon alloy (trade name: Sendust), an iron-nickel alloy (trade name: Permalloy), and an amorphous (iron And cobalt-based).

  Means for turning these into powder may be in accordance with known methods such as pulverization and granulation.

  The particle diameter and shape of the magnetic material powder are the same as those of the above-described dielectric material, and a material having a smooth surface is preferable as in the case of the dielectric, but crushed powder may be used. The effect of using the crushed powder is the same as above.

  Further, two or more magnetic material powders having different types and particle size distributions may be used. The mixing ratio at that time is arbitrary, and the material used, the particle size distribution, and the mixing ratio may be adjusted depending on the application.

  The magnetic material powder preferably has a magnetic permeability μ of 10 to 1,000,000. Further, it is preferable that the bulk insulating property is higher because the insulating property when the substrate is formed is improved.

  The mixing ratio between the resin and the magnetic material powder is preferably such that the magnetic permeability of the entire constituent layer to be formed is 3 to 20. In particular, when the ratio of the resin to the magnetic material powder is indicated in the paste step of applying to the glass cloth or the like, the content of the magnetic material powder is preferably 10 to 65% by volume, particularly preferably 20 to 60% by volume. With such a content of the magnetic material powder, the magnetic permeability of the entire constituent layer becomes 3 to 20, and desired electric characteristics are easily obtained. On the other hand, when the content of the magnetic material powder increases, the dielectric constant decreases, making it difficult to apply a slurry and apply it, and to manufacture electronic components, substrates, and prepregs. On the other hand, when the content of the magnetic material powder is small, it may not be possible to secure the magnetic permeability, and it is difficult to impart magnetic properties.

  As the flame retardant used in the present invention, various flame retardants usually used for making a substrate flame-retardant can be used. Specifically, halides such as halogenated phosphoric acid esters and brominated epoxy resins, organic compounds such as phosphoric acid ester amides, and inorganic materials such as antimony trioxide and aluminum hydride can be used.

The reinforcing fibers such as glass cloth used in the present invention may be of various types depending on purposes and applications, and commercially available products can be used as they are. The reinforcing fibers at this time are E glass cloth (ε = 7, tan δ = 0.003, 1 GHz), D glass cloth (ε = 4, tan δ = 0.0013, 1 GHz), and H glass according to the electrical characteristics. Crosses (ε = 11, tan δ = 0.003, 1 GHz) or the like may be used properly. Further, a coupling treatment or the like may be performed to improve interlayer adhesion. The thickness is preferably 100 μm or less, particularly preferably 20 to 60 μm. The cloth weight is preferably 120 g / m ² or less, particularly preferably ²⁰ to 70 g / m ² .

  Further, the mixing ratio of the resin and the glass cloth is preferably from 4/1 to 1/1 in weight ratio of the resin / glass cloth. With such a mixing ratio, the effects of the present invention are improved. On the other hand, when this ratio is reduced and the amount of epoxy resin is reduced, the adhesion to the copper foil is reduced, and a problem occurs in the smoothness of the substrate. Conversely, when this ratio increases and the amount of epoxy resin increases, it becomes difficult to select a glass cloth that can be used, and it is difficult to secure strength with a thin wall.

  As the metal foil to be used, any suitable metal having good conductivity such as gold, silver, copper, and aluminum may be used. Of these, copper is particularly preferred.

  As a method for producing a metal foil, various known methods such as electrolysis and rolling can be used.However, if it is desired to obtain a foil peel strength, the electrolytic foil is used. It is good to use the rolled foil which is less affected by the skin effect.

  The thickness of the metal foil is preferably from 8 to 70 μm, particularly preferably from 12 to 35 μm.

  In the present invention, in order to obtain a prepreg serving as a basis of an electronic component, a paste containing a dielectric material and a resin having a predetermined compounding ratio, a magnetic material as necessary, and a flame retardant, and kneaded in a solvent to form a slurry is used. Follow the steps of applying and drying (B-stage). The solvent used in this case is preferably a volatile solvent, particularly preferably the above-mentioned polar neutral solvent, and is used for the purpose of adjusting the viscosity of the paste to facilitate coating. The kneading may be performed by a known method using a ball mill, stirring, or the like. It can be formed by coating a paste on a metal foil or impregnating on a glass cloth.

  The drying of the prepreg (B stage) may be appropriately adjusted depending on the content of the dielectric material powder to be contained, the magnetic material powder if necessary, and the content of the flame retardant. The thickness after drying and B-stage formation is preferably about 50 to 300 μm, and may be adjusted to an optimum film thickness according to the use and required characteristics (pattern width and precision, DC resistance) and the like.

  The prepreg can be manufactured by a method as shown in FIG. 72 or 73. In this case, the method of FIG. 72 is relatively suitable for mass production, and the method of FIG. 73 is characterized in that the film thickness can be easily controlled and the characteristics can be adjusted relatively easily. In FIG. 72, as shown in FIG. 72 (a), the glass cloth 101a wound in a roll shape is unwound from the roll 90 and transported to the coating tank 92 via the guide roller 91. In this coating tank 92, a dielectric material powder dispersed in a solvent, a magnetic material powder, a flame retardant and a resin are adjusted in a slurry state as required. When a glass cloth passes through this coating tank 92, The glass cloth is immersed in the slurry and applied to the glass cloth, and the gap therein is filled.

  The glass cloth that has passed through the coating tank 92 is introduced into the drying oven 120 via guide rollers 93a and 93b. The resin-impregnated glass cloth introduced into the drying oven is dried at a predetermined temperature and for a predetermined time, is B-staged, and is turned around by a guide roller 95 and wound around a winding roller 99.

  Then, when cut into a predetermined size, as shown in (b), a prepreg in which a dielectric material powder, a magnetic material powder as needed, and a resin 102 containing a flame retardant are disposed on both surfaces of the glass cloth 101. Is obtained.

  Further, as shown in (c), a metal foil 100 such as a copper foil is placed on both upper and lower surfaces of the obtained prepreg, and is pressed by heating and pressing to obtain a double-sided metal foil as shown in (d). A substrate is obtained. The molding can be performed in a plurality of stages under different conditions. When no metal foil is provided, heating and pressing may be performed without disposing the metal foil.

  Next, the manufacturing method of FIG. 73 will be described. In FIG. 73, as shown in FIG. 73 (a), a dielectric material powder, a magnetic material powder as needed, a slurry 102a in which a flame retardant and a resin are dispersed in a solvent, a copper foil or the like are kept while the clearance is kept constant by a doctor blade 96 or the like. On the metal foil.

  Then, when cut into a predetermined size, as shown in (b), a prepreg in which a dielectric material powder, a magnetic material powder as needed, and a resin 102 containing a flame retardant are disposed on the upper surface of the metal foil 100 Is obtained.

  Further, as shown in (c), the prepregs 102 obtained on the upper and lower surfaces of the glass cloth 101 are respectively arranged with the resin 102 side as the inner surface, and are pressed by heating and pressing, as shown in (d). A substrate with double-sided metal foil is obtained. The heating and pressing conditions may be the same as described above.

  The substrate and the prepreg constituting the electronic component can also be obtained by kneading a material and molding a kneaded material in a solid state in addition to the above-mentioned coating method. In this case, since the raw material is solid, it is easy to take a thickness, and is suitable as a method for forming a relatively thick substrate or prepreg.

  The kneading may be performed by a known method such as a ball mill, stirring, and a kneader. At that time, a solvent may be used if necessary. Further, it may be pelletized or powdered as required.

  The thickness of the prepreg obtained in this case is about 0.05 to 5 mm. The thickness of the prepreg may be appropriately adjusted according to the desired plate thickness, the content of the dielectric material powder and the content of the magnetic material powder.

  Further, a metal foil such as a copper foil is placed on the upper and lower surfaces of the prepreg obtained in the same manner as described above, and then heated and pressed to obtain a substrate with a double-sided metal foil. The molding can be performed in a plurality of stages under different conditions. When no metal foil is provided, heating and pressing may be performed without disposing the metal foil.

  The substrate (organic composite material) as a molding material thus obtained is excellent in high-frequency characteristics of magnetic permeability and dielectric constant. In addition, it has excellent insulation properties that can be endured as an insulating material. Furthermore, when a substrate with a copper foil is used as described later, the adhesive strength with the copper foil is large. Also, it has excellent heat resistance such as solder heat resistance.

  The prepreg of the present invention can form a substrate with a copper foil by laminating on a copper foil and molding by heating and pressing. In this case, the thickness of the copper foil is about 12 to 35 μm.

  Examples of such a substrate with a copper foil include a double-sided patterned substrate and a multilayer substrate.

  74 and 75 show process diagrams of an example of forming a double-sided patterned substrate. As shown in FIG. 74 and FIG. 75, a prepreg 216 having a predetermined thickness and a copper (Cu) foil 217 having a predetermined thickness are overlaid and molded by applying pressure and heating (step A). Next, a through hole 218 is formed by drilling (step B). Copper (Cu) plating is performed on the formed through hole 218 to form a plating film 225 (step C). Further, the copper foil 217 on both surfaces is patterned to form a conductor pattern 226 (step D). Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 74, plating for connecting external terminals and the like is performed (step E). In this case, plating is performed by a method of further plating Pd after Ni plating, a method of further plating Au after Ni plating (plating is electrolytic or electroless plating), or a method using a solder leveler.

  76 and 77 are process diagrams of an example of forming a multilayer substrate, and show an example in which four layers are stacked.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail by showing specific experimental examples and examples of the present invention.
<Experimental example 1>
Hybrid materials obtained by preparing materials shown in Tables 1-1 and 1-2 as resin materials, and mixing dielectric material powders and magnetic material powders shown in Tables 1-1 and 1-2 at a predetermined ratio. The dielectric constant ε of each material was measured. The results are shown in Tables 1-1 and 1-2. In addition, a decrease in dielectric constant when a magnetic material is included is shown together with a comparative sample. In Table 1-1, a sample having a dielectric material powder content of 50% by volume represents a conventional comparative sample, and a sample having a dielectric material powder content of 60% by volume represents a sample of the present invention. In Table 1-1, (ε × μ) ^1/2 was calculated as μ = 1 because no magnetic material powder was contained.

As is clear from Tables 1-1 and 1-2, the maximum content of the dielectric material powder and the magnetic material powder contained in the resin used is 50 to 60% by volume as compared with the conventional dielectric material powder. %, And the dielectric constant also increases. It can also be seen that (ε × μ) ^1/2 is rather increased when the magnetic material powder is mixed.

  In the figure, an inductor 10 includes a constituent layer (prepreg or substrate) 10a to 10e having the resin of the present invention, an internal conductor (coil pattern) 13 formed on the constituent layers 10b to 10e, and an internal conductor 13 And a via hole 14 for electrical connection. This via hole 14 can be formed by drilling, laser processing, etching or the like. The terminal ends of the formed coils are connected to the through vias 12 formed on the end faces of the inductor 10 and the land patterns 11 formed slightly in the vertical direction from the through vias 12. The through via 12 has a structure cut in half by dicing, V-cut or the like. This is because a plurality of elements are formed on the collective substrate and cut from the center of the through via 12 when finally cut into individual pieces.

  At least one of the constituent layers 10a to 10e of the inductor 10 has at least a projected shape of a circle, a flat circle, or an ellipse, and particularly has an average particle diameter of 1 to 50 μm and a sphericity of 0.9 to 1.0. A composite dielectric material in which a certain dielectric is dispersed in a resin is used. The composite dielectric material may further contain a magnetic powder for adjusting magnetic properties, and in some cases, may contain these crushed powders.

  When considering the use of this composite dielectric material as a chip inductor for high frequency use, it is necessary to reduce the distributed capacitance as much as possible, so that the relative dielectric constant is preferably set to 2.6 to 3.5. In some cases, the distributed capacitance is positively used in the inductor forming the resonance circuit. In such an application, the relative dielectric constant is preferably set to 5 to 40. In this manner, the size of the element can be reduced and the capacitor can be omitted. In addition, in this inductor, it is necessary to minimize material loss. For this reason, by setting the dielectric loss tangent (tan δ) to 0.0025 to 0.0075, it is possible to obtain an inductor with very low material loss and high Q. Further, when considering an application for removing noise, it is necessary to increase the impedance as much as possible at the frequency of the noise to be removed. In such a case, it is preferable to adjust the magnetic permeability to 3 to 20. As a result, the effect of removing high-frequency noise can be significantly improved.
