A circuit board includes a circuit substrate, at least one metal pad, and a tin bar corresponding to each of the at least one metal pad. Each of the at least one metal pad is formed on a side of the circuit substrate and is electrically connected to the circuit substrate. A surface of the metal pad facing away from the circuit substrate is recessed toward the circuit substrate to from a recess. The tin bar is received in the recess.

Embodiments are generally directed to module installation on printed circuit boards with embedded trace technology. An embodiment of a printed circuit board includes one or more layers including a top layer; multiple embedded traces that are contained in an area of a surface of a first layer of the one or more layers of the printed circuit board; and a first module, the first module being installed on the plurality of printed traces in the area.

A method of making an electrical component includes transmitting electrical energy from a power source through one or more deposition anodes, through an electrolyte solution, and to an intralayer electrical-connection feature of a build plate, such that material is electrochemically deposited onto the intralayer electrical-connection feature and forms an interlayer electrical-connection feature. The method also includes securing a dielectric material so that the dielectric material contacts and electrically insulates the intralayer electrical-connection feature and contacts and at least partially electrically insulates the interlayer electrical-connection feature. The method additionally includes depositing a seed layer onto the dielectric material and the interlayer electrical-connection feature, electrochemically depositing material onto the seed layer, to form at least one second intralayer electrical-connection feature of the electrical component, and removing any one or more portions of the seed layer onto which no portion of the at least one second intralayer electrical-connection feature is formed.

A substrate of an electronic device includes a first set of contact pads and a first set of contact pillars having a height greater than the first set of contact pads. Components are coupled to the first set of contact pads and the first set of contact pillars in traversing directions. The components coupled to the contact pillars are positioned above the components coupled to the first set of contact pads such that at least a first portion of a first side of the component coupled to the contact traces faces a first side of the components coupled to the contact pillars. Stacking passive components in this manner can allow for increased component density without increasing package size.

A circuit board includes a circuit substrate, at least one metal pad, and a tin bar corresponding to each of the at least one metal pad. Each of the at least one metal pad is formed on a side of the circuit substrate and is electrically connected to the circuit substrate. A surface of the metal pad facing away from the circuit substrate is recessed toward the circuit substrate to from a recess. The tin bar is received in the recess. A method for manufacturing a circuit board is also provided.

A method of making an electrically-conductive film is provided. The method includes providing a release layer, optionally having a topologically structured surface, and depositing at least one electrically-conductive layer on the release layer whereby the at least one electrically-conductive layer has an outer surface that substantially replicates the topologically structured surface. The electrically-conductive layer can be peeled away from the release layer to obtain the electrically-conductive film. Such electrically-conductive films can be useful in lightning strike applications.
