Abstract

A printed circuit board includes an insulating material with a bump pad buried in one surface, an adhesive layer stacked on the one surface of the insulating material, an insulating layer stacked on the adhesive layer, and a cavity passing through both of the adhesive layer and the insulating layer to expose the bump pad, wherein the cavity has a cross-sectional area decreasing in a direction toward the insulating material.

Claims (43)

1. A printed circuit board comprising:

an insulating material comprising a bump pad buried in one surface;

an adhesive layer stacked on the one surface of the insulating material;

an insulating layer stacked on the adhesive layer;

a cavity passing through both of the adhesive layer and the insulating layer to expose the bump pad,

wherein the cavity is configured to accommodate an electronic element such that a distance between the one surface of the insulating material and a top of the electronic component is less than a sum of thicknesses of the adhesive layer, the insulating layer, and the electronic element, and

wherein the cavity comprises a cross-sectional area decreasing in a direction toward the insulating material in both the adhesive layer and the insulating layer.

2. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , further comprising a solder resist disposed on a bottom surface of the cavity to expose the bump pad.

3. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , further comprising a second adhesive layer disposed on the insulating layer.

4. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein the insulating layer comprises a greater thickness than the adhesive layer.

5. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , further comprising a protective layer disposed on the one surface of the insulating material along a circumference of the cavity.

6. The printed circuit board of claim 5 , wherein the protective layer comprises an edge covered by the adhesive layer.

7. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , wherein the cavity comprises an inner side surface comprising a concave curved surface.

8. The printed circuit board of claim 7 , wherein the cavity comprises a first region passing through the insulating layer and a second region passing through the adhesive layer, and

wherein the inner side surface of the first region is steeper than the inner side surface of the second region.

9. The printed circuit board of claim 1 , further comprising a via passing through both of the insulating layer and the adhesive layer.

10. The printed circuit board of claim 9 , further comprising a via pad buried in the one surface of the insulating material,

wherein the via is connected to the via pad.

11. The printed circuit board of claim 10 , further comprising an inner via disposed inside the insulating material connected to the via pad,

wherein the via comprises a cross-sectional area decreasing in a direction toward the via pad, and

wherein the inner via comprises a cross-sectional area decreasing in a direction toward the via pad.

12. A package structure in which an upper package and a lower package are bonded, the lower package comprising a printed circuit board with an electronic element mounted thereon, wherein the printed circuit board comprises:

an insulating material comprising a bump pad buried in one surface;

an adhesive layer stacked on the one surface of the insulating material;

an insulating layer stacked on the adhesive layer;

a cavity passing through both of the adhesive layer and the insulating layer to expose the bump pad

wherein the cavity comprises a cross-sectional area decreasing in a direction toward the insulating material in both the adhesive layer and the insulating layer, and

wherein the electronic element is located inside the cavity and bonded to the bump pad such that a distance between the one surface of the insulating material and a top of the electronic component is less than a sum of thicknesses of the adhesive layer, the insulating layer, and the electronic element.

13. The package structure of claim 12 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises a solder resist disposed on a bottom surface of the cavity to expose the bump pad.

14. The package structure of claim 12 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises a second adhesive layer disposed on the insulating layer.

15. The package structure of claim 12 , wherein the insulating layer comprises a greater thickness than the adhesive layer.

16. The package structure of claim 12 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises a protective layer disposed on the one surface of the insulating material along a circumference of the cavity.

17. The package structure of claim 16 , wherein the protective layer comprises an edge covered by the adhesive layer.

18. The package structure of claim 12 , wherein the cavity comprises an inner side surface comprising a concave curved surface.

19. The package structure of claim 18 , wherein the cavity comprises a first region passing through the insulating layer and a second region passing through the adhesive layer, and

wherein the inner side surface of the first region is steeper than the inner side surface of the second region.

20. The package structure of claim 12 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises a via passing through both of the insulating layer and the adhesive layer, and

wherein the via is electrically connected to the upper package.

21. The package structure of claim 20 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises a via pad buried in the one surface of the insulating material, and

wherein the via is connected to the via pad.

22. The package structure of claim 21 , wherein the printed circuit board further comprises an inner via disposed inside the insulating material connected to the via pad,

wherein the via comprises a cross-sectional area decreasing in a direction toward the via pad, and

wherein the inner via comprises a cross-sectional area decreasing in a direction toward the via pad.
