A Ni plating layer or an Au plating layer is deposited on the exposed surface of the wiring conductor in each wiring board region of the multi-piece wiring board. In the case of depositing such different metal plating layers on the exposed surfaces of different wiring conductors, it has been carried out as follows. That is, in the state where one exposed surface of the wiring conductor is masked, after the electrolytic Ni plating is performed using the wiring conductor as a plating electrode, the masking is removed and the wiring conductor is masked on the other exposed surface. Electrolytic Au plating is applied using as a plating electrode. For this reason, the number of plating steps and costs have increased.
In addition, due to the demand for smaller wiring boards and finer pitches for internal wiring, it is difficult to take up the space for masking, and in the state of multiple wiring boards as described above, There is a demand for testing electrical characteristics with high accuracy and efficiency. However, no technology corresponding to such a request has been proposed so far.

  The present invention solves the problems in the background art described above, and a plurality of wiring boards having a plurality of wiring boards provided with a plurality of surface electrodes individually and precisely coated with the same or different kinds of metal plating layers on the surface of the substrate body, etc. It is an object of the present invention to provide a wiring board and a manufacturing method capable of efficiently manufacturing the multi-cavity wiring board.

Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention forms a plurality of sets of internal wiring layers that form a plurality of independent circuits for each wiring board in the multi-cavity wiring board as a result of intensive studies by the inventors. , It was conceived.
That is, the multi-cavity wiring board according to the present invention (Claim 1) includes a base substrate made of an insulating layer having a plurality of substrate bodies of a wiring board as a product unit along a plane direction, and a side surface of the base substrate. A plurality of external connection terminals formed along the thickness direction, and at least a first wiring layer and a second wiring layer built in each substrate body and formed as independent circuits, and each substrate body The first wiring layer and the second wiring layer formed in the substrate are individually connected to the first surface electrode and the second surface electrode formed on at least one of the front surface and the back surface of the substrate body . The surface electrode and the second surface electrode include an Ni plating layer and an Au plating layer covering the surface of the Ni plating layer, and one of the first surface electrode and the second surface electrode is the Au metal layer. The surface of the key layer are coated Ag plated layer is further plurality of external connection terminals, a first terminal for external connection are conductively only the first wiring layer, said second wiring layer only And a second external connection terminal capable of being conducted.

According to this, the first surface electrode conducted to the first wiring layer of each first external connection terminal and the board body, the electrically connected to the second wiring layer of each second external connection terminal and the board body on the second surface electrode are Ni-plated layer and an Au plating layer are each covered, and the either has a substrate body group of a wiring board overturned further object of the Ag plating layer. For this reason, it is possible to provide a multi-piece wiring board that can be mounted or connected to various electronic components on the front and back surfaces of each wiring board at the same time.
