Abstract

A resin multilayer substrate includes a stacked body including a first main surface, a cavity provided in the first main surface, and conductor patterns provided in the stacked body. The stacked body includes insulating substrate layers including resin as a main material that are stacked. The cavity includes a side surface and a bottom surface. At least a portion of a boundary between the side surface and the bottom surface includes conductor patterns continuous with the side surface and the bottom surface.

Claims (36)

1. A resin multilayer substrate comprising:

a stacked body including a first main surface and a plurality of insulating substrate layers that are stacked and include thermoplastic resin as a main material;

a cavity disposed in the first main surface and including a side surface and a bottom surface; and

a conductor pattern disposed in the stacked body; wherein

the stacked body includes a bent portion;

all of the plurality of insulating substrate layers of the stacked body included in the bent portion include a main material that is the same as at least one main material of all of the plurality of insulating substrate layers of the stacked body included outside of the bent portion;

the cavity and the bent portion are spaced apart from one another; and

at least a portion of a boundary between the side surface and the bottom surface includes the conductor pattern continuous with the side surface and the bottom surface.

2. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein

the stacked body includes a second main surface opposing the first main surface; and

the stacked body has a thickness from the bottom surface to the second main surface in a stacking direction of the plurality of insulating substrate layers, the thickness being less than a thickness of the stacked body from the first main surface to the bottom surface in the stacking direction.

3. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , further comprising:

an interlayer connection conductor disposed in the stacked body; wherein

the interlayer connection conductor does not overlap the cavity when viewed from the stacking direction of the plurality of insulating substrate layers.

4. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein

the conductor pattern includes a first region embedded in the stacked body and a second region at least partially exposed on the bottom surface; and

the second region has a thickness greater than one-half of a thickness of the first region.

5. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein a portion of the boundary between the side surface and the bottom surface and closest to the bent portion includes the conductor pattern continuous with the side surface and the bottom surface.

6. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein

the bottom surface is polygonal when viewed from a stacking direction of the plurality of insulating substrate layers; and

the conductor pattern is disposed at least at a corner of the bottom surface when viewed from the stacking direction.

7. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein an entirety or substantially an entirety of the boundary includes the conductor pattern continuous with the side surface and the bottom surface.

8. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein an entirety or substantially an entirety of the conductor pattern is disposed at the bottom surface when viewed from a stacking direction of the plurality of insulating substrate layers.

9. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a component at least partially disposed in the cavity; wherein

the component is conductive to the conductor pattern.

10. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 9 , wherein

the conductor pattern includes a first region embedded in the stacked body and a second region at least partially exposed on the bottom surface; and

the second region includes a surface exposed on the bottom surface and having a surface roughness that is smaller than a surface roughness of a surface of the first region.

11. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein

the stacked body includes an external electrode on a second main surface opposing the first main surface, and at least one interlayer connection conductor connecting the conductor pattern and the external electrode; and

the cavity does not overlap the at least one interlayer connection conductor.

12. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein the stacked body including the bent portion has a uniform or substantially uniform thickness except for the cavity.

13. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein

the stacked body including the bent portion has a uniform or substantially uniform thickness except for the cavity.

14. The resin multilayer substrate according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of a portion of the stacked body included in the bent portion is greater than a thickness of a portion of the stacked body that includes the cavity.
