Circuit device with conductive patterns separated by insulating resin-filled grooves
View Patent ↗To make thin a circuit device 10 in which are incorporated a plurality of types of circuit elements 12 that differ in thickness, first conductive patterns, onto which comparatively thin circuit elements 12 A are mounted, are formed thickly, and second conductive patterns 11 B, onto which comparatively thick second circuit elements 12 B are mounted, are formed thinly. Also, fine wiring parts may be formed using the thinly formed second conductive patterns 12 B. Thus even in the case where thick circuit elements are incorporated, by affixing such circuit elements onto the thinly formed second conductive patterns 11 B, the total thickness can be made thin. Thinning of circuit device 10 as a whole can thus be accomplished.
1. A circuit device comprising:
first conductive patterns, separated by first separation grooves;
second conductive patterns, formed more thinly than the first conductive patterns and separated by second separation grooves;
first circuit element, affixed onto the first conductive patterns;
second circuit element, affixed onto the second conductive patterns; and
an insulating resin, covering the circuit element and the conductive patterns while leaving rear surfaces of both of the conductive patterns exposed and filling both of the separation grooves.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein top surfaces of the first conductive patterns are formed higher than top surfaces of the second conductive patterns.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein at least one constricted part is provided at a side part of each separation groove that separates the first conductive patterns.
4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the second circuit elements are thicker than the first circuit elements.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein a sum height of a height of the first circuit element and a height of the first conductive patterns is made equivalent to a sum height of a height of the second circuit element and a height of the second conductive patterns.
6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the first circuit element comprises a semiconductor element.
7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the first circuit element is an element that generates heat.
