Multilayered circuitized substrate with P-aramid dielectric layers and method of making same
View Patent ↗A multilayered circuitized substrate including a plurality of dielectric layers each comprised of a p-aramid paper impregnated with a halogen-free, low moisture absorptivity resin including an inorganic filler but not including continuous or semi-continuous fiberglass fibers as part thereof, and a first circuitized layer positioned on a first of the dielectric layers. A method of making this substrate is also provided.
1. A method of making a multilayered circuitized substrate, said method comprising: providing a p-aramid paper; impregnating said p-aramid paper with a halogen-free, low moisture absorptivity resin including an inorganic filler to form a first thin, fire resistant dielectric layer that meet the flammability performance test specified by UL94-VO standard and not including continuous or semi-continuous fiberglass fibers as part thereof;
forming a first circuitized layer on said first thin dielectric layer to form a thin core substrate;
and bonding a second thin dielectric layer comprising a composition similar to said composition of said first thin dielectric layer to said thin core substrate to form a UL94-VO multilayered circuitized substrate, in which each of said first and second thin dielectric layers is fire resistant and meet the flammability performance test specified by UL94-VO standard.
2. The method of claim 1 further including forming within said multilayered circuitized substrate a plurality of thru-holes in a pattern having a density of from about 5,000 thru-holes per square inch to about 10,000 thru-holes per square inch.
3. The method of claim 2 wherein said selected ones of said plurality of thru-holes are provided within said first and second thin dielectric layers using a laser.
4. The method of claim 1 further including positioning a second circuitized layer on said second thin dielectric layer opposite said first circuitized layer.
5. The method of claim 4 further including providing third and fourth thin dielectric layers as part of said multilayered circuitized substrate, said third and fourth thin dielectric layers each being of a composition similar to said composition of said first thin dielectric layer of said thin core substrate.
6. The method of claim 1 further including electrically coupling at least one electrical component to said first circuitized layer to form an electrical assembly.
