The electrical properties of a back drilled via-hole (BDH) without the open-stub and the plated through via-hole (PTH) with the open-stub, which is called the conventional structure, in a high-count multi~layered (HCML) printed circuit board (PCB) were investigated for a high-speed digital system, and a selected inner layer to transmit a high-speed signal was farthest away from the side to mount the component. Within 10 GHz of the broadband frequency, a design of experiment (DOE) methodology was carried out with three cause factors of each via-hole structure, which were the distance between the via-holes, the dimensions of drilling pad and the anti-pad in the ground plane, and then the relation between cause and result factors which were the maximum return loss, the half-power frequency, and the minimum insertion loss was analyzed. Subsequently, the empirical formulae resulting in a macro model were extracted and compared with the experiment results. Even, out of the cause range, the calculated results obtained from the macro model can be also matched with the measured results within 5 % of the error.

In the case of micro.electro-mechanical system (MEMS) devices, the quality of punched via hole is one of the most important factors governing the performance of the device. The common features that affect the laser micromachining of via holes drilled by using Nd:$YVO_4$ laser are described, and efficient optimization methods to measure them are presented. The analysis methods involving an orthogonal array, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and response surface optimization are employed to determine the main effects and to determine the optimal laser process parameters. The significant laser process parameters were identified and their effects on the quality of via holes were studied. Finally, an experiment in which the optimal levels of the laser process parameters were used was carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the optimization method.

Micro via hole Fabrication is studied by means of minimizing method to circuit size as many electric products developed to portable and minimize. Most of currently micro via hole fabrication using laser is that fabricate insulator layer using CO2 Laser after Cu layer by etching, or fabricate insulator layer using IR after trepanning Cu by UV. In this paper, it was performed that a metal layer and insulator layer were worked upon only one UV laser, and increase to processing speed by experiment.

Recent electronic equipment becomes smaller, more functional, and more complex. According to these trends, LTCC(low temperature co-fired ceramic) has been emerged as a promising technology in packaging industry. It consists of multi-layer ceramic sheet, and the circuit has 3D structure. In this technology via hole formation plays an important role because it provides an electric path for the packaging interconnection network. Therefore via hole quality is very important for ensuring performance of LTCC product. Via holes are formed on the green sheet that consists of ceramic(before sintering) layer and PET(polyethylene Terephthalate) one. In this paper we found the correlation between hole quality and process condition such as ceramic thickness, and tool size. The shear behavior of double layer sheet by micro hole punching which is different from that of single layer one was also discussed.

LTCC(Low temperature co-fired ceramic) is being recognized as a significant packaging material of electrical devices for the advantages such as relatively low temperature being needed for process, low conductor resistance and high printing resolution. In the process of LTCC electrical devices, the punched via-hole quality is one of the most important factors on the performance of the device. However, its mechanism is very complicated and optimization of the process seems difficult. In this paper, to clarify the process, via-hole punching experiments were carried out and the punched holes were examined in terms of their burr formation. The effects of thickness of PET sheet, ceramic sheet and punch-to- die clearance on via-hole quality were also discussed. Optimum process conditions are proposed and a factor $\kappa$ is introduced to express effect of the process variables.

최근 휴대폰 등 모방일 전자기기 산업에서 차세대 고부가 PCB(MLB, HDI, FPC, 등) 및 고기능 PCB(COF, MOF, SOF)의 급속한 적용 확대로 직경$20{\mu}m$급의 비아홀(viahole) 및 interconnection 홀 가공을 위한 초정밀/초고속 레이저 드릴링 공정 및 장비기술 개발에 대한 시장의 요구가 급증하고 있다. 이에 반해 기존의 CO2 레이저 드릴링은 기술적 한계에 도달하여 시장의 요구에 대응이 불가하며, 선진업체에서는 최근 UV 레이저 드릴링 장비에 대한 시장 점유율을 높여가고 있다. 특히 국내시장은 미국의 ESI사가 독점하고 있어 기술개발 투자를 통한 국산화가 절실한 상황이다. 이에 당사에서는 초고속/초정밀 UV laser 시스템을 이용한 FPC iva hole drilling을 연구과제로 개발을 진행하고 있으며 국산화를 넘어서 세계시장점유를 목표로 공정장비개발을 진행중이다.

In this paper, the Thermal behavior and reliability characteristics of carbon CCL (Copper Claded Layer), which can be used as the core of HDI (High Density Interconnection) PCB (Printed Circuit Board) are evaluated through experiments and numerical analysis using CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) software. For the characterization of the carbon CCL, it is compared with the conventional FR-4 core and Heavy Cu core. From research results, the deformation amount of the flexure strength of PCB is the highest with pitch grade carbon and thermal behavior of PCB is lowest as temperature increases. In addition, TC (Thermal Cycling), LLTS (Liquid-to-Liquid Thermal Shock) and Humidity tests have been applied in the PCB with carbon core and the reliability of PCB with carbon core is confirmed through reliability tests. Also, possibility of uneven surface of the via hole and wear of the drill bit due to the carbon fibers are analyzed. surface of the via hole is uniform, the surface of the drill bit is smooth. Therefore, it is proved that the carbon CCL has the drilling workability of the same level as conventional core material.
