Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an anisotropic conductive film and a method of fabricating the same, and more particularly to a multilayered conductive film having a multi-layer stack arrangement of different conductive particle densities. The optimum gradation structure can be selected according to the type of design used. [Previous Technology 4] Since Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD) has the advantages of being light, thin, and low in power consumption, it is currently the main display device for personal computers and notebook computers. 'The consumer TFT_LCD TV is also increasing year by year. TFT-LCD requires a specific driving device, generally called LCD driver integrated circuit (Integrated Circuit, 1C). The TFT-LCD driver 1C is connected to the substrate mainly by means of G〇id Bumping. Bonding, but the pitch of the gold bumps is generally small, about 20um~40um, and the melting point of the gold bumps is much higher than that of the tin-lead bumps, so it is difficult to solder using the conventional lead-lead reflow process. The bonding method is to use an anisotropic conductive film (ACF: Anis〇tiOpie Conductive Film). The composition of ACF mainly includes conductive particles and insulating rubber materials. The conductive particles are contained in the absolute material, and the sand insulation is mixed in the ground with Wei stag 201037054. And under the external vertical pressure, the conductive particles move in the direction of compression, and then contact or squeeze deformation, thereby forming an electrical conduction effect in the vertical direction of the compression, but at the level of uncompressed In the lateral direction, the conductive particles are still insulated by the insulating material to form an insulating electrical state. When the insulating rubber is cured for a period of time, the conductive particles are no longer External force moves while forming a vertical insulated conductive but stable level structure. Therefore, the TFT-LCD driver IC is made to form a good electrical connection with the substrate. The types of conductive particles can be classified into carbon black, metal balls, and resin balls coated with metal. Black is an early product and it is not used much at present. The metal ball is recorded as a large ball. The gamma is high in hardness and low in the county. The sharp horns can be inserted into the money to increase the contact area. The defect is that it may damage the fragile joints and allow for greening. In order to overcome the problem of the reduction of the nickel ball, the gold mine on the surface of the nickel ball can be turned over. At present, the ❹ ball "conductive particles are mostly used for connection with PCB, and the TM electrode connection of LCD panel is not applicable." The main reason is that the metal ball is hard and has many sharp corners, which may cause damage to the 1T 〇 line. Therefore, the ACF used for the TFT-LCD is based on the contact of the gold-nickel nickel. Due to the sturdy nature of the lion ball, not only does the σ ΙΤ0 line not be injured, but also the spheroid will be deformed during the process of pressurization. Shape to increase the contact area. The electric particle in ACF plays a key role in vertical conduction. The number of conductive particles in the insulating rubber towel is larger. The larger the product is, the smaller the contact resistance in the vertical direction of 201037054 is, the better the conduction effect is. However, too much or too large conductive particles may easily contact each other when the thermocompression is in contact with each other to cause a lateral conduction short circuit, resulting in an abnormal electrical function or even failure to cause damage to the entire TFT-LCD. As the resolution of the TFT-LCD is increased, the number of pins driving the ic is also increased. The size of the gold bumps and the pads on the substrate is relatively narrower, that is, toward a fine pitch ( Finepitch). In the case where the contact area is reduced, it is necessary to increase the trapping rate of the conductive particles in order to maintain sufficient conduction. In the conventional preparation method, the addition amount of the conductive particles must be increased, which in turn increases the manufacturing cost and is not conducive to market competition. In addition, increasing the amount of conductive particles added reduces the electrical insulation in the lateral direction, because lateral conductive particles are possible (4):!: Pressurization produces contact with the push effect to form electrical conduction. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the product yield and reduce the cost of raw materials by increasing the density of the electric particles without increasing the density of the electric particles. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The main purpose of this month is to provide a layered anisotropic conductive film, which comprises a plurality of layers of conductive material, each of which contains a large selection of conductive particles and the density of the conductive particles is low. High gradual change, because 201037054, this can increase the particle capture rate without increasing the density of conductive particles, and can achieve the required vertical on-resistance value when the pitch is reduced, and avoid lateral conduction, greatly improving the product. Yield. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a layered anisotropic conductive film, which is to first manufacture a rubber material containing different conductive particle densities, and then apply a low conductive particle density rubber material to the substrate. After being heated for baking, a first layer of glue is formed, and then a rubber material having a higher conductive particle density is applied onto the first layer of glue, and after baking by heating, a second layer of glue is formed. The rubber material with a higher density of conductive particles is applied to the upper layer of the conductive particles at a higher density than the riding layer, and the money removing substrate forms a layered anisotropic conductive film. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a graded anisotropic conductive film by first applying an original rubber material to which no conductive particles are added to a substrate, and then spraying the conductive particles by an inkjet method. Into the original rubber layer 10 (10) secret material layer 'and repeat this step and change the ink pressure to change the conductive particle system into (four) into a multi-layered layered anisotropic conductive film with different filament density.

The cost is higher, and the conductive particle density of the second adhesive layer 22 is lower than the conductive particle density of the third silicone layer 23.

The material layer proceeds to step S150. In step S150, if the final glue layer has been completed, the process proceeds to step S160, and if the final glue layer has not been completed, the process returns to step s13, and the above operation is repeated.
