Abstract

A method of manufacturing an electronic component module includes mounting an electronic component on at least one surface of a first board, subsequently inspecting the first board for functions, forming a resin layer burying or covering the electronic component on the one surface of the first board to flatten the one surface side of the first board, aligningly stacking the first board, a plate-like member and a second board so that the other surface of the first board is opposite one surface of the plate-like member and so that the other surface of the plate-like member is opposite one surface of the second board, pressurizing the first board, the plate-like member and the second board which have been stacked, and heating the first board, the plate-like member, and the second board which have been stacked.

Claims (43)

1 . A method of manufacturing an electronic component module, the method comprising:

forming a plate-like member containing an uncured thermosetting resin;

mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board;

forming an abutting portion burying or covering the electronic components on the one surface of the first board to flatten the one surface side;

inspecting the first board after (a) the mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board or (b) the forming an abutting portion burying or covering the electronic components on the one surface of the first board to flatten the one surface side;

aligningly stacking the first board, the plate-like member, and a second board so that the other surface of the first board on which the abutting portion is not formed is opposite one surface of the plate-like member and so that the other surface of the plate-like member is opposite one surface of the second board;

pressurizing the first board, the plate-like member, and the second board which have been stacked; and

heating the first board, the plate-like member, and the second board which have been stacked.

2 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board means mounting an electronic component on the other surface as well as the one surface of the first board.

3 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 1 , further comprising:

forming a through-hole in the plate-like member; and

filling a thermosetting conductive material into the through-hole.

4 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board means mounting one or more electronic components on at least the other surface of the second board, the other surface of the second board being positioned opposite the plate-like member, and

the forming an abutting portion burying or covering the electronic components on the one surface of the first board to flatten the one surface side means forming an abutting portion burying or covering the electronic components on the one surface of the second board to perform flattening.

5 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 1 , wherein the mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board means also mounting one or more electronic components on the one surface of the second board which is opposite the other surface of the plate-like member.

6 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 1 , wherein the forming an abutting portion burying or covering the electronic components on the one surface of the first board to flatten the one surface side means forming the abutting portion by coating resin on the surface.

7 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 1 , further comprising;

placing a metal foil on the flattened surface.

8 . A method of manufacturing an electronic component module, the method comprising:

forming a plate-like member containing an uncured thermosetting resin;

mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board;

forming an abutting portion on a part of the one surface of the first board in which the electronic components are not formed, the abutting portion having a height that is uniform and equal to or greater than that of a highest one of the electronic components on the one surface of the first board;

inspecting the first board after (a) the mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board or (b) the forming an abutting portion on a part of the one surface of the first board in which the electronic components are not formed, the abutting portion having a height that is uniform and equal to or greater than that of a highest one of the electronic components on the one surface of the first board;

aligningly stacking the first board, the plate-like member, and a second board so that the other surface of the first board on which the abutting portion is not formed is opposite one surface of the plate-like member and so that the other surface of the plate-like member is opposite one surface of the second board;

pressurizing the first board, the plate-like member, and the second board which have been stacked; and

heating the first board, the plate-like member, and the second board which have been stacked.

9 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 8 , wherein the mounting one or more electronic components on at least one surface of a first board means mounting an electronic component on the other surface as well as the one surface of the first board.

10 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 8 , further comprising:

forming a through-hole in the plate-like member; and

filling a thermosetting conductive material into the through-hole.

11 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 8 , wherein the forming an abutting portion on a part of the one surface of the first board in which the electronic components are not formed, the abutting portion having a height that is uniform and equal to or greater than that of a highest one of the electronic components on the one surface of the first board means forming the abutting portion by coating resin on the surface.

12 . The method of manufacturing the electronic component module according to claim 8 , wherein the abutting portion has a plurality of abutting parts, and

forming the abutting portion on the part of the surface in which the electronic components are not formed means forming a plurality of the abutting parts of the same height on the surface around peripheries of the electronic components.

13 . An electronic component module comprising:

a plate-like member;

a first board provided on one surface of the plate-like member and having a surface located opposite the plate-like member at least on which one or more electronic components are mouneted;

a second board provided on a surface of the plate-like member, the surface of the plate-like member being positioned opposite the first board; and

an abutting portion burying or covering the electronic components on the surface of the first board to flatten the surface side.

14 . An electronic component module comprising:

a plate-like member;

a first board provided on one surface of the plate-like member and having a surface located opposite the plate-like member at least on which one or more electronic components are mounted;

a second board provided on a surface of the plate-like member, the surface of the plate-like member being positioned opposite the first board; and

an abutting portion formed on a part of the surface of the first board in which the electronic components are not formed, the abutting portion having a height that is uniform and equal to or greater than that of a highest one of the electronic components on the surface of the first board.
