Abstract
One aspect of the invention relates to a method for producing a circuit carrier. For this purpose, an electrically insulating carrier is provided, having an upper side and also an underside opposite from the upper side. A first metal foil and a hardening material are likewise provided. Then, an upper metallization layer, which is arranged on the upper side and has a hardening area, is produced. In this case, at least one contiguous portion of the hardening area is created by at least part of the hardening material being diffused into the first metal foil.
Claims12
A method for producing a circuit carrier, comprising the steps of:
- providing an electrically insulating carrier, which has an upper side and also an underside opposite from the upper side;
- providing a first metal foil above the upper side;
- providing a second metal foil above the first metal foil;
- providing a hardening material between the first metal foil and the second metal foil, the hardening material being completely covered by the second metal foil;
- and
- producing an upper metallization layer arranged on the upper side and having a hardening area, at least one contiguous portion of the hardening area being created by at least part of the hardening material being diffused into the first metal foil and at least part of the hardening material being diffused into the second metal foil, wherein the hardening material is diffused into the first and second metal foils by heating the first metal foil and the hardening material to temperatures of at least 350° C.
A method for producing a circuit carrier, comprising the steps of:
- providing an electrically insulating carrier, which has an upper side and also an underside opposite from the upper side;
- providing a first metal foil having an upper surface that faces away from the electrically insulating carrier;
- providing a hardening material on a portion of the upper surface of the first metal foil;
- and
- diffusing the hardening material into the upper surface of the first metal foil thereby forming a hardening area,
- wherein at least one contiguous portion of the hardening area is contained within the first metal foil, extends to the upper surface of the first metal foil, and adjoins non-diffused portions of the first metal foil at outer sides of the at least one contiguous portion that extend to the upper surface of the first metal foil.
