Method of fabricating printed wiring board

Abstract

The present invention aims to provide a method of fabricating a printed wiring board characterized in that a printed wiring board is fabricated by perforating a slot by a router bit at a central part of a substrate. The method further includes cutting a wiring portion for electric plating by the router bit. According to the method, the occurrence of cut burr on the surfaces of the wiring pattern, caused by electric plating, is prevented, the product yield is promoted and the operational efficiency is improved. The invention also discloses a method of fabricating a printed wiring board by forming a conductor circuit by patterning a metal coating formed on a surface of an insulating substrate, successively subjecting the conductor circuit to a surface treatment by electric plating and thereafter perforating a slot by a router bit. The slot connects the substrate to a semiconductor chip at a central portion thereof by bonding wires. As per the method, a pattern of a wiring portion (a wiring pattern) for the electric plating at a location for perforating the slot is inclined at an acute angle relative to a face orthogonal to a moving direction of the router bit, preferably, an acute angle of approximately 15° or more and a width of the wiring portion for the electric plating being approximately 90 μm or more.
