Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve productivity and reliability by a method wherein the surface of a synthetic resin layer is given conductivity by performing inverse sputtering on a semiconductor circuit substrate having a layer composed of synthetic resin as the uppermost layer, and electroplating is performed by using the conductive surface as a cathode. CONSTITUTION:By performing inverse sputtering on a semiconductor circuit substrate 1, the surface of a synthetic resin layer 13 is given conductivity, and electroplating is performed by using said surface as a cathode. That is, since the surface can be used as a cathode at the time of electroplating, the etching process of barrier metal 15 is unnecessitated after a protruded electrode 17 is formed by electroplating. Thereby over etching of the root of the protruded electrode 17 can be prevented, so that productivity and reliability can be improved.
