Abstract
A circuit board is manufactured such that a laminated conductive pattern is formed directly on a surface of an insulating board made of a resin board by plating. The circuit board is subjected to heat treatment at temperatures higher than the softening point at which the resin board is softened and lower than a thermal point at which the conductive pattern is not displaced on the board. The circuit board manufactured in such a manner is able to have the insulating board and the conductive pattern strongly bonded to one another and to prevent displacement of laminated conductive pattern due to flow of resin.
Claims5
A method of manufacturing a circuit board, comprising the steps of:
- forming an electroless plating layer on a roughened surface of a film-like resin board;
- covering said electroless plating layer with a photosensitive resist film and forming a predetermined pattern containing openings in said resist film;
- forming an electrolytic plating layer on said electroless plating layer exposed through said openings of said resist film;
- removing said resist film;
- removing said electroless plating layer under said resist film to form a laminated conductive pattern having said electroless plating layer and said electrolytic plating layer on said resin board;
- and
- heating said resin board having said conductive pattern formed thereon at temperature range of higher than a softening point of said resin board and lower than a specific thermal point, said specific thermal point being defined such that said conductive pattern is not displaced on said resin board.
