Wiring board and manufacturing method thereof
Disclosed is a wiring board including: an insulating substrate; a plurality of connection terminals arranged on the insulating substrate; and a plurality of non-conductive protruding parts respectively arranged on areas of the insulating substrate except areas on which the plurality of connection terminals are arranged. The non-conductive protruding parts has a height greater than that of the connection terminals.
1. A wiring board, comprising:
an insulating substrate:
a plurality of connection terminals arranged on the insulating substrate;
a plurality of non-conductive protruding parts respectively arranged on areas of the insulating substrate except areas on which the plurality of connection terminals are arranged,
the non-conductive protruding parts having a height greater than that of the connection terminals; and
columnar parts respectively arranged under the non-conductive protruding parts, with portions of the columnar parts embedded in the insulating substrate, and made of a material having a lower thermal shrinkage rate than that of the insulating substrate.
2. The wiring board according to claim 1 ,
wherein each of the plurality of non-conductive protruding parts is located between adjacent ones of the plurality of connection terminals.
3. The wiring board according to claim 1 ,
wherein the plurality of non-conductive protruding parts are at least three non-conductive protruding parts and are in a non-linear arrangement.
4. The wiring board according to claim 1 ,
wherein the insulating substrate contains a ceramic material as a predominant component, and
wherein the columnar parts contain a metal material as a predominant component.
5. A manufacturing method of a wiring board, comprising:
providing an insulating substrate in which a plurality of columnar parts are arranged, the columnar parts being made of a material having a lower thermal shrinkage rate than that of the insulating substrate;
arranging connection terminals on areas of the insulating substrate except areas corresponding in position to the columnar parts;
depositing a non-conductive material over the columnar parts on the insulating substrate; and
heating or firing the insulating substrate on which the non-conductive material has been deposited, so as to allow the columnar parts to partially protrude from the insulating substrate due to a difference in thermal shrinkage rate between the insulating substrate and the columnar parts and thereby form protruding parts containing the non-conductive material.
