A chip part includes a substrate, a first electrode and a second electrode which are formed apart from each other on the substrate and a circuit network which is formed between the first electrode and the second electrode. The circuit network includes a first passive element including a first conductive member embedded in a first trench formed in the substrate and a second passive element including a second conductive member formed on the substrate outside the first trench.

A package substrate is provided, which includes a plurality of dielectric layers and a plurality of circuit layers alternately stacked with the dielectric layers. At least two of the circuit layers have a difference in thickness so as to prevent warpage of the substrate.

Provided herein is a printed wiring board that can desirably dissipate the heat of a heat-generating component. The printed wiring board includes one or more wires, and one or more heat-generating components. The one or more wires include a rolled copper foil, either partly or as a whole. The one or more heat-generating components and the one or more wires are directly or indirectly connected to each other.

A method of manufacture of a circuit board without annular through-hole rings and thus allowing a higher component density includes a base layer, a first wire pattern layer, and a second wire pattern layer on both sides of the base layer. A portion of the base layer not covered by the first wire pattern layer defines at least one first hole. The circuit board further includes a wire layer. The wire layer includes at least a first portion and a second portion connecting to the first portion. The first portion is filled in the first hole. The second portion is formed on the first portion extending away from the base layer. A diameter of the second portion is less than an aperture diameter of the first hole. The wire layer is electrically conductive between the first wire pattern layer and the second wire pattern layer through the first portion.

Embodiments are directed to semiconductor packaging having reduced sized plated through hole (PTH) pads by eliminating the margin of the pad-to-PTH alignment and enabling finer traces on the core of the substrate.

An instrument panel as a vehicular panel includes a panel body on a surface side of which key tops are installed, a printed wiring section arranged on the surface side of the panel body, and an insulation outer layer arranged on the surface side of the panel body so as to cover the printed wiring section.

A printed wiring board includes: a dielectric layer having a main surface; and a conductive pattern. The conductive pattern includes a metal layer that is disposed on the main surface, an electroless plating layer that is disposed on the metal layer, and an electrolytic plating layer that is disposed on the electroless plating layer. An average thickness of the metal layer is 2.1 m or more and 9.0 m or less. Maximum height roughness of a surface of the metal layer opposed to the main surface is 5.0 m or less.

A printed circuit board includes, an insulating substrate, a metal conductor which is formed on the insulating substrate, a solder resist coating a part of the metal conductor, a scooped-out portion of the metal conductor formed in the vicinity of an end of the solder resist, and a metal layer coating the scooped-out portion.

A method for manufacturing a circuit-board structure wherein a conductor foil is provided on an insulating material layer, a resist layer is spread on the conductor foil and a recess formed in the conductor foil and insulating material layer. The resist layer is patterned to form a conductor-pattern having openings wherein conductor patterns may be grown. A component is attached to the conductor foil and conductor pattern and conductor material is removed which does not form part of a conductor pattern.

In a mark forming step in a manufacturing method for a component incorporated substrate in which an electronic component is positioned with reference to a mark formed in a copper layer, when an imaginary line extending from a search center of a search range of a sensor, to an edge side of the search range is represented as a search reference line and an imaginary line extending, in a state in which a mark center, is matched with the search center, from the mark center in the same direction as the search reference line to an outer ridgeline of the mark is represented as a mark reference line, the mark formed in a shape in which the outer ridgeline of the mark is present in a position where a length of the mark reference line is in a range of 30% or more of the search reference line.
