Abstract
A method of making a printed circuit network device including steps of depositing an insulating primary substrate layer on a temporary support member having a release surface, applying to the exposed surface of the primary substrate layer certain defined conductor areas, applying defined resistor areas on the exposed surface of the primary substrate layer and in electrical connection with the conductor areas, trimming the respective resistor areas to a predetermined resistive value, mounting the temporary support member with its several layers in facing relationship with a permanent support member, and thereafter releasing and removing the temporary support member from the mounted primary support layer.
Claims8
A method of manufacturing an electrical network package comprising the steps of:
- providing a temporary support member having a release surface;
- depositing an insulating primary substrate layer on said release surface;
- depositing defined conductor areas of conductive material to the exposed surface of said primary substrate layer;
- joining said temporary support member to a permanent insulating support member with the said substrate layer and its aforestated pre-applied conductor areas in facing relationship with a supporting surface of said permanent support member;
- and
- releasing and removing said temporary support member from said primary substrate layer.
A method of manufacturing an electrical resistor network package comprising the sequential steps of:
- providing a temporary support member having a release surface;
- printing indicia areas in reverse format on said release surface;
- depositing an insulating primary substrate layer over said indicia and on said release surface;
- depositing defined conductor areas of conductive material to the exposed surface of said primary substrate layer;
- depositing defined resistor areas of resistive material to the exposed surface of said primary substrate layer with portions of the resistor areas overlying respective conductor areas;
- depositing defined terminal contactor areas of conductive material overlying portions of said resistor areas;
- removing portions of said resistor areas to trim said areas to a predetermined resistive value;
- joining said temporary support member to a permanent support member with the said substrate layer and its aforestated pre-applied areas in facing relationship with a supporting surface of said permanent support member;
- and
- releasing and removing said temporary support member from said primary substrate layer.
