A wiring board includes an insulation resin layer, and a wiring conductor positioned on the insulation resin layer. The wiring conductor includes a first and second underlying metal layers, a wiring metal layer positioned on the second underlying metal layer, a tin layer positioned covering the first underlying metal layer, the second underlying metal layer, and the wiring metal layer, and a silane coupling agent layer positioned covering the tin layer. When the wiring conductor is seen in a cross section in a width direction, the wiring metal layer includes, from the first underlying metal layer side, a portion with a width narrower than a width of the first underlying metal layer, a portion with a width equal to the width of the first underlying metal layer, and a portion with a width wider than the width of the first underlying metal layer.

Provided is a method for forming a through-hole including: forming a laminated body including a fluororesin layer having a first main surface and a second main surface, a first adhesive layer, a first reinforcing resin layer and a first conductor layer provided on the first main surface, a second adhesive layer, a second reinforcing resin layer and a second conductor layer provided on the second main surface; forming an opening in the first conductor layer and irradiating the opening with a laser beam to form a bottomed conduction hole with the second conductor layer exposed on a bottom surface of the conduction hole, wherein a thermal decomposition temperature of the second cured adhesive layer is lower than those of the first reinforcing resin layer and the second reinforcing resin layer, and a thickness of the second cured adhesive layer is 10 m or more and 200 m or less.

The disclosure provides a circuit substrate and a method for manufacturing the same. The circuit substrate includes a wiring and a substrate having a base region and a circuit region. The base region having a first pattern is constituted by a first thermoplastic material. The circuit region having a second pattern is constituted by a second thermoplastic material. The first pattern has a portion opposite to the second pattern. The wiring is formed on the circuit region along the second pattern. The first thermoplastic material is different from the second thermoplastic material, and the second thermoplastic material includes a catalyst particle.

A wiring circuit board includes a support metal layer having thermal conductivity of 5 W/m.Math.K or more, an insulating layer disposed on at least one side in a thickness direction of the support metal layer, a wiring layer disposed on a front surface of the insulating layer, a protective metal film disposed on the entire surface of the support metal layer between the support metal layer and the insulating layer, and a protective thin film disposed on an exposed surface exposed from the protective metal film in the support metal layer.

A surface finish for a printed circuit board (PCB) and semiconductor wafer includes a nickel disposed over an aluminum or copper conductive metal surface. A barrier layer including all or fractions of a nitrogen-containing molecule is deposited on the surface of the nickel layer to make a barrier layer/electroless nickel (BLEN) surface finish. The barrier layer allows solder to be reflowed over the surface finish. Optionally, gold (e.g., immersion gold) may be coated over the barrier layer to create a nickel/barrier layer/gold (NBG) surface treatment. Presence of the barrier layer causes the surface treatment to be smoother than a conventional electroless nickel/immersion gold (ENIG) surface finish. Presence of the barrier layer causes a subsequently applied solder joint to be stronger and less subject to brittle failure than conventional ENIG.

A printed wiring board includes a laminated structure including insulating layers, and conductive layers laminated on the insulating layer, respectively, such that the conductive layers include an outermost conductive layer having a radiation slot, and an inner-side conductive layer having an excitation portion facing the radiation slot in a lamination direction. The laminated structure has a recess portion recessed from the radiation slot toward the excitation portion such that a bottom surface of the recess portion is positioned between the outermost conductive layer and the excitation portion, and the insulating layers include an insulating layer having at least a portion covering the excitation portion.

Provided is a plating lamination technology for providing a highly adhesive inner layer of a printed circuit board.
