Abstract

See full text

A selective segment via plating process for manufacturing a circuit board selectively interconnects inner conductive layers as separate segments within the same via. Plating resist is applied to a conductive layer of an inner core and then stripped off after an electroless plating process. Stripping of the electroless plating on the plating resist results in a plating discontinuity on the via wall. In a subsequent electroplating process, the plug non-conductive layer can not be plated due to the plating discontinuity. The resulting circuit board structure has separate electrically interconnected segments within the via.
