Definitions
- This invention relates to a method of making electrical feedthroughs in thermally conductive support substrates used to impart mechanical strength to ceramic multilayer printed circuit boards. More particularly, this invention relates to a method of making electrical feedthroughs in ceramic multilayer printed circuit board support substrates that is compatible with mass production techniques.
- Ceramic multilayer printed circuit boards have been used for many years for circuits for electrical apparatus, such as mainframe computers. Such printed circuit boards are made by casting glass and/or ceramic powders together with an organic binder into tapes, called green tapes. A metal circuit can be patterned onto the green tape by screen printing for example. Vias are formed in each green tape layer that are filled with a conductive material to connect the circuits of the various layers electrically. The green tape layers are then aligned and stacked, pressed together, and fired to burn off organic residues and sinter the glass, thereby forming a fired ceramic multilayer circuit board.
- low firing temperature glasses have been deposited on support substrates made of metal or ceramic to which the glasses will adhere.
- the support substrate can be of a thermally conductive material such as nickel, kovar, a ferrous nickel/ cobalt manganese alloy, Invar®, a ferronickel alloy, low carbon steel, or Cu/kovar/Cu, Cu/Mo/Cu or Cu/Invar®/Cu composites and the like, as well as thermally conductive ceramics such as aluminum nitride, silicon carbide, diamond and the like. These substrates impart added strength to the composite.
- a bonding glass such as described in US Patent 5,277,724 to
- the bonding glass can reduce shrinkage of the green tape with respect to the metal substrate in at least the two lateral dimensions. Thus all of the shrinkage occurs in the thickness dimension only. This in turn reduces problems of alignment of the circuit patterns in the ceramic layers and the via holes in the metal substrate after firing.
- the present process for forming electrical feedthroughs in support substrates for double sided printed circuit board substrates comprises providing dielectric insulation in the feedthroughs.
- a via hole is opened in the support substrate core material, as by drilling, the substrate via hole is plated with nickel, one or more dielectric materials such as glass is deposited in the via hole.
- a conductive metal is deposited to fill the via hole inside the dielectric ring.
- the dielectric material and the center conductive metal must be able to withstand several firings at temperatures up to at least 900°C without melting or flowing.
- Fig. 1 is a flow chart of the preferred process for filling via holes in a printed circuit board support substrate in accordance with the process of the invention.
- Fig. 2 is a thermal coefficient of expansion plot of a glass suitable for use as a dielectric in the present process.
- Fig. 3 is a differential thermal analysis (DTA) plot of a glass suitable for use as a dielectric in the present process.
- DTA differential thermal analysis
- Figs. 4A and 4B illustrate the steps of forming a glass dielectric layer in a via hole.
- Fig. 5 is a cross sectional partial view of a printed circuit board support substrate having a filled via hole filled in accordance with the method of the invention.
- the preferred support substrate for use herein is a Cu/Mo/Cu metal composite substrate commercially available from the Climax Metals
- via openings can be formed in the support substrate using a laser or mechanical drilling equipment that can drill small diameter holes, e.g., about 13-40 mils in diameter or less.
- the mechanically drilled openings are then deburred, as by rubbing the edges with a soft stone, whereby via openings having sharp corners are eliminated.
- the thicker the substrate material the more difficulty may be encountered in drilling the openings.
- Thirteen mil diameter holes can also be readily drilled using a NdrYAG laser at 15-30 watts with 0.6 msec pulse lengths.
- a minimum hole diameter of 7 mils for a 20 mil thick support substrate can be made readily. If the thickness of the support substrate is higher, the minimum hole diameter that can be made may be larger; for example, for a 40 mil thick support substrate, the minimum hole diameter that can be readily made is 8 mils.
- the drilled holes are next deburred and nickel plated. This step seals the core material of the support substrate and can be accomplished by conventional nickel electroplating methods.
- the nickel is then oxidized, as by heating in air at temperatures about 820°C.
- the nickel oxide layer which exhibits a resistance of 10 ⁇ - 10 ohms, constitutes the first ring of dielectric material in the via hole.
- An insulating dielectric layer, as of a glass, is then deposited in the via hole to form an annular ring.
- glass is a fragile material that can crack during multiple firings, it is preferred that two or more layers of glass be sequentially deposited in the openings so that if a defect, such as a pore, forms in one layer, it will not extend through the entire glass layer, to cause a shorted feedthrough.
- One particular glass composition having the following composition in percent by weight is particularly useful with the above nickel plated Cu/Mo/Cu composite metal substrate; ZnO 28.68 gO 5.92
- This glass can be used as the dielectric insulator for the substrate via holes.
- the same glass can also be used later in the process as a constituent of the thick film conductor via fill ink required for filling the center of each via hole with conductive metal, as further described below.
- Another suitable glass composition for use with the preferred metal substrate has the following composition in percent by weight:
- a preferred method of applying the glass composition from a standard glazing ink constituting the above glass is to apply vacuum after the screen printing to deposit one or more of the above glass layers.
- a glazing ink comprises the finely divided glass and an organic vehicle.
- Suitable organic vehicles are solutions of resin binders, such as cellulose derivatives, synthetic resins such as polyacrylates, polymethacrylates, polyesters, polyolefins and the like, in a suitable solvent.
- the solvent can be pine oil, terpineol, butyl carbitol acetate, 2,2,4-trimethyl-l,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate and the like.
- the vehicles generally contain from about 5 to 25 percent by weight of the resin binder.
- the glasses of the invention comprise those glasses having a thermal coefficient of expansion near that of the support substrate material, will wet nickel oxide and can be fired at a temperature up to about 1000°C.
- Suitable glasses of the invcention include a glass comprising zinc oxide, about 28.68% by weight, magnesium oxide, about 5.92% by weight, barium oxide, about 6.21% by weight, aluminum oxide, about 15.36% by weight, and silicon oxide, about 43.82% by weight and a glass comprising magnesium oxide, about 29% by weight; aluminum oxide, about 22% by weight, silicon oxide, about 45% by weight and up to about 4% by weight of phosphorus oxide, boron oxide and zirconium oxide.
- Fig. 4A illustrates a printed glass layer 20 over a via hole 22 in a metal substrate 24.
- a vacuum is applied after the printing, beneath the metal substrate 24 in the direction of the arrow 25, sufficient to bring the glass ink layer 20 into the via hole 22, thereby forming an annular ring of the glass ink inside the via hole 22.
- This glass layer is then dried.
- the deposition and vacuum pull can be repeated to form multiple glass dielectric layers in the via hole 22. If both sides of the metal substrate 24 are to be used, the above sequence of steps is repeated on the opposite side of the metal substrate 24.
- the support substrate is then fired to sinter the glass powder and form a composite fired glass insulator layer in the opening.
- a thick via fill ink containing a conductive metal powder is then applied to the metal substrate, also using conventional screen printing techniques.
- a suitable conductor thick film ink comprises a mixture of silver or other conductive metal powder, glass, and an organic vehicle as described above in proportions so as to form a print screenable thick film paste.
- Thick film conductor via fill inks are made by mixing a finely divided conductive metal powder, with a preselected glass powder and an organic vehicle. Suitable conductive powders include silver, gold, copper, their mixtures, and alloys thereof with palladium and platinum and the like, or nickel.
- the fired thick film conductive metal ink can comprise from about 50-90% by weight of metal and about 10-50% by weight of a glass.
- the thick film conductor via fill ink composition is applied to the prepared printed circuit board support substrate so as to fill the glass insulated via holes and is then fired to remove organic materials and to sinter the metal powder to obtain the conductive, insulated feedthroughs.
- Fig. 5 is a cross sectional view of the metal substrate 24 having dielectric insulated electrical feedthroughs therein.
- the via hole 22 in the metal substrate 24 has a first layer 22 of nickel oxide dielectric, two dielectric glass layers 26, 28 and a conductive via fill layer 30 therein. Sufficient conductive via fill ink is applied so that the remainder of the via hole 22 is completely filled at the end of the process.
- the support substrate as prepared above having conductive vias in via openings that are dielectrically insulated from the rest of the substrate, can then be used to prepare double sided multilayer printed circuit boards from the substrates of the invention in conventional manner.
- the above process can be used to make a reproducible support substrate having a plurality of electrical feedthroughs therein that will not form short circuits between circuitry on both sides of the substrate.
- the support substrate having electrical feedthroughs as prepared above can withstand several firings at temperatures used in making ceramic multilayer printed circuit boards without undermining the structural and electrical integrity of the feedthroughs.
