## Background
RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is the U.S. National Phase under 35 U.S.C. §371 of International Application No. PCT/JP2007/070524, filed on Oct. 22, 2007, which in turn claims the benefit of Japanese Application No. 2006-288493, filed on Oct. 24, 2006, the disclosures of which Applications are incorporated by reference herein.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a printed wiring board and a flexible printed wiring board for which noise reduction measures have been taken.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
As electronic devices have been reduced in size and increasingly highly integrated in recent years, radiated electromagnetic noises tend to be generated in a printed board used in the electronic devices and a flexible printed wiring board which connects the printed boards, and these boards are easily affected by external noises.
An example of a measure for reducing the generation and influence of the electromagnetic noises is a twisted pair structure wherein a differential wiring is used. In the Patent Document 1, for example, a structure illustrated in FIG. 6 (hereinafter, referred to as a first conventional example) was proposed as a structure of the flexible printed wiring board in which the electromagnetic noises are reduced. According to the first conventional example, a wiring pattern layer provided on a surface side of a flexible printed wiring board having a bilayer structure is patterned so that a plurality of surface wirings 528 in parallel with one another and tilted downward from left to right are obtained, a wiring pattern layer provided on a rear-surface side thereof is patterned so that a plurality of rear-surface wirings 529 intersecting with the surface wirings 528, in parallel with one another, and tilted upward from left to right (viewed from the surface side) are obtained, and end portions of the surface wirings 528 and the rear-surface wirings 529 are connected through inter-layer connection vias 530. As a result, the twisted pair structure is formed as a whole.
The Patent Document 2 proposed a structure illustrated in FIGS. 7A and 7B (hereinafter, referred to as a second conventional example) as a structure of a flexible printed wiring board in which the electromagnetic noises are reduced. According to the second conventional example, a first wiring pattern 602 and a second wiring pattern 603, for which a signal having a phase electrically different to that of the first wiring pattern 603 through 180 degrees is driven, are formed in a wave shape on a wiring pattern layer provided on a surface side of a flexible printed wiring board having a monolayer structure, and the twisted pair structure is formed so that the phase difference between the first wiring pattern 602 and the second wiring pattern 603 is 180 degrees when the wiring board is bent along a bending line 618.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
When the conventional technologies described above are adopted, the generation and influence of the electromagnetic noises can be reduced; however, the following problems are still left unsolved. The first conventional example is disadvantageous in that manufacturing costs of the wiring board are increased because it is necessary to use the inter-layer connection vias to form the twisted pair structure. The second conventional example is disadvantageous in that a distance between the first wiring pattern 602 and the second wiring pattern 603 is not constant because the wiring board is bent to form the twisted pair structure, and the characteristics of differential signals are deteriorated due to transmission by the first wiring pattern 602 and the second wiring pattern 603. The constitution recited in the first conventional example, wherein the twisted pair structure is formed in a plane direction and a cross-sectional direction of the wiring board, is durable against the external electromagnetic noises in the plane direction and the cross-sectional direction of the wiring board. However, the constitution recited in the second conventional example, wherein the twisted pair structure is two-dimensionally provided, is only durable against the external electromagnetic noises in the cross-sectional direction of the wiring board.
A main object of the present invention is to provide a wiring board capable of effectively reducing electromagnetic noises and minimizing cost increases by improving the electromagnetic noise reduction which is inadequate in the conventional printed wiring board and flexible printed wiring board.
Means for Solving the Problem
A printed wiring board according to the present invention comprises:
at least two insulation substrates stacked on each other;
a first wave-shape wiring provided between the insulation substrates facing each other;
a second wave-shape wiring provided between the insulation substrates facing each other and three-dimensionally intersecting with the first wave-shape wiring in a plane direction and a thickness direction of the insulation substrates; and
a resist layer provided between the insulation substrates and electrically separating the first wave-shape wiring and the second wave-shape wiring from each other.
According to the present invention thus constituted, a printed wiring board capable of preventing the deterioration of characteristics of a differential wiring, resistant to external electromagnetic noises in a plane direction and a cross-sectional direction of the wiring board and having low noise radiation characteristics can be obtained.
Preferably, any of a thermal-bonding portion in internal wirings of the first wave-shape wiring or the second wave-shape wiring, solder, solder paste, and a conductive adhesive constitutes an electric connection member which internally connect the first wave-shape wiring and the second wave-shape wiring. Accordingly, the distance between the first wave-shape wiring and the second wave-shape wiring is substantially constant, which prevents the deterioration of the characteristics of the differential signals.
The printed wiring board according to the present invention preferably comprises at least three pieces of the insulation substrates multilayered on one another, wherein
the first wave-shape wiring, the second wave-shape wiring and the resist layer are provided in each of a plurality of interlayer spaces of the insulation substrates, and
the first wave-shape wirings adjacent to each other and the second wave-shape wirings adjacent to each other in the thickness direction of the insulation substrates are disposed at such positions that the first wave-shape wirings adjacent to each other and the second wave-shape wirings adjacent to each other are plane-symmetrical to each other relative to a bonding surface of the insulation substrates.
Accordingly, a pseudo twisted pair structure can be multilayered in a thickness direction of the printed wiring board, and the noises radiated in the thickness direction of the wiring board can be thereby further reduced. At the time, it is important that the two pseudo twisted pair structures are disposed at substantially the same location and have a mirror-image relationship therebetween. If phases of the pseudo twisted pairs are equal to each other, the reduction of the radiated noises cannot be effectively obtained. Furthermore, although the constitution described above is effective for the reduction of the radiated noises, cross talk noises between the differential wirings are increased in the case where the pseudo twisted pair structures continuously provided in the thickness direction of the substrates are too close to each other, which results in the deterioration of a signal quality. When the present invention is implemented, therefore, it is preferable to figure out a most suitable distance that reduces the cross talk noises and the radiated noises using a simulator or the like.
According to the present invention, the printed wiring board capable of reducing deterioration of the characteristics of the differential wiring without any increase in costs, resistant to the external electromagnetic noises in the plane direction and the cross-sectional direction of the wiring board and having low noise radiation characteristics can be obtained.
When a plurality of pseudo twisted pair structures formed by the rectangular wave-shape wirings are provided, and the flexible printed wiring board is bent a plurality of times so that the pseudo twisted pair structures are continuously provided in the cross-sectional direction of the flexible printed wiring board, the noises radiated in the cross-sectional direction of the wiring board can be reduced. At the time, it is important that the pseudo twisted pair structures continuously provided in the cross-sectional direction of the flexible printed wiring board are disposed at substantially the same location in the mirror-image manner. If phases of the pseudo twisted pairs are equal to each other, the reduction of the radiated noises is not as effective as expected. The constitution described above is effective for the reduction of the radiated noises; however, the cross talk noises between the differential wirings are increased in the case where the pseudo twisted pair structures continuous in the cross-sectional direction of the wiring board are too close to each other, which results in the deterioration of the signal quality. When the present invention is implemented, therefore, it is preferable to figure out a most suitable distance that reduces the cross talk noises and the radiated noises using a simulator or the like.
Effect of the Invention
According to the printed wiring board provided by the present invention, the generation and influence of the electromagnetic noises can be effectively reduced while preventing the characteristics of the differential signals from deteriorating in comparison to the conventional printed wiring board. Further, in the case where the pseudo twisted pair structures in which polarities of the electromagnetic noise radiation are different (directions to which the electromagnetic noises are radiated are different) are continuously provided in the cross-sectional direction of the printed wiring board, the generation and influence of the electromagnetic noises can be more effectively reduced.
According to the flexible printed wiring board provided by the present invention, wherein the flexible printed wiring board is bent so that the pseudo twisted pair structures are formed, the flexible printed wiring board in which the electromagnetic noises are unlikely to be generated and the influences of the electromagnetic noises can be reduced in comparison to the conventional flexible printed wiring board can be obtained without any cost increases. Further, the pseudo twisted pair structures can be formed without the deterioration of the differential signals. Further, in the case where the flexible printed wiring board is provided with at least two sets of pseudo twisted pair structures and bent a plurality of times, the pseudo twisted pair structures in which the polarities of the electromagnetic noise radiation are different (directions to which the electromagnetic noises are radiated are different) can be continuously provided in the cross-sectional direction of the printed wiring board. As a result, the generation and influence of the electromagnetic noises can be more effectively reduced.

Below is given a description, in a manner similar to the foregoing description, based states viewed from the thickness direction of the insulation substrates 108A and 108B.
In each of the first wiring patterns 102 and the second wiring patterns 103 adjacent to each other, an end portion of the first intersecting wiring portion 102b extends to a position where the end portion intersects with an end portion of the second parallel wiring portion 103a, and an end portion of the second intersecting wiring portion 103b extends to a position where the end portion intersects with an end portion of the first parallel wiring portion 102a. 
In each of the third wiring patterns 104 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 adjacent to each other, an end portion of the third intersecting wiring portion 104b extends to a position where the end portion intersects with an end portion of the fourth parallel wiring portion 105a, and an end portion of the fourth intersecting wiring portion 105b extends to a position where the end portion intersects with an end portion of the third parallel wiring portion 104a. 
Below is given a description, in a manner similar to the foregoing description, based on states viewed from the thickness direction of the insulation substrates 108A and 108B.
The first intersecting wiring portion 102b of each of the first wiring patterns 102 is connected to the second parallel wiring portion 103a of each of the second wiring patterns 103 on one side adjacent to the relevant first wiring pattern 102 with the first electrical connection member 110 interposed therebetween.
The first parallel wiring portion 102a of each of the first wiring patterns 102 is connected to the second intersecting wiring portion 103b of each of the second wiring patterns 103 on the other side adjacent to the relevant first wiring pattern 102 with the first electrical connection member 110 interposed therebetween.
The third intersecting wiring portion 104b of each of the third wiring patterns 104 is connected to the fourth parallel wiring portion 105a of each of the fourth wiring patterns 105 on one side adjacent to the relevant third wiring pattern 104 with the second electrical connection member 111 interposed therebetween.
The third parallel wiring portion 104a of each of the third wiring patterns 104 is connected to the fourth intersecting wiring portion 105b of each of the fourth wiring patterns 105 on the other side adjacent to the relevant third wiring pattern 104 with the second electrical connection member 111 interposed therebetween.
The resist layer 112 is provided between the first insulation substrate 108A and the second insulation substrate 108B, and the first wiring pattern layer 100 and the second wiring pattern layer 101 are electrically insulated from each other by the resist layer 112.
At positions where the first and second electrical connection members 110 and 111 are provided, the resist layer 112 is provided with the resist bore portions 106 penetrating therethrough in a thickness direction thereof. The resist bore portions 106 are thus provided, so that the connection between the first wiring pattern layer 100 and the second wiring pattern 101 by the first and second electrical connection members 110 and 111 is not prevented.
Thus, the first wiring patterns 102 and the second wiring patterns 103 are serially connected to each other with the first electrical connection members 110 interposed therebetween, which constitutes the first wave-shape wiring 113. The third wiring patterns 104 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 are serially connected to each other with the second electrical connection members 111 interposed therebetween, which constitutes the second wave-shape wiring 114.
In the printed wiring board thus constituted, signals in which phases are electrically different to each other through 180 degrees are driven from a signal source 120 for the first wave-shape wiring 113 and the second wave-form wiring 114, which constitutes an electric device having a pseudo twisted pair structure.
As the first electric connection member 110 may be used, other than solder, a thermally-bonding portion between the first wiring pattern 102 and the second wiring pattern 103, a conductive adhesive, or a conductive paste. In a similar manner, as the second electric connection member 111 may be used, other than solder, a conductive adhesive, a conductive paste, or a thermally-bonding portion between the third wiring pattern 104 and the fourth wiring pattern 105.
According to the preferred embodiment 1, the printed wiring board having the pseudo twisted pair structure between the insulation substrates, for which measures for electromagnetic noise protection have been taken, is provided. More specifically, the first wiring patterns 102 and the third wiring patterns 104 to which a signal having a phase electrically different to that of the first wiring patterns 102 through 180 degrees is driven are alternately provided with equal intervals therebetween in a part of the first wiring pattern layer 100 provided on the surface 108Aa of the first insulation substrate 108A. On the other hand, in a part of the second wiring pattern layer 101 provided on the surface 108Ba of the second insulation substrate 108B, the second wiring patterns 103 in which a signal having the same phase as that of the first wiring patterns 102 flows and the fourth wiring patterns 105 in which a signal having the same phase as that of the third wiring patterns 104 flows are provided in a phase order reverse to that of the first and third wiring patterns 102 and 104, and also equally spaced to be thereby arranged in a mirror-image manner (plane-symmetrical) in the case where the first and second insulation substrates 108A and 108B are stacked on each other. Then, the first wiring patterns 102 and the second wiring patterns 103 are serially connected to each other in the resist bore portions 106 with the first electric connection members 110 interposed therebetween, and the third wiring patterns 104 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 are serially connected to each other in the resist bore portions 106 with the second electric connection members 111 interposed therebetween. Accordingly, the first and second wave-shape wirings 113 and 114 having such a pseudo twisted pair structure that the respective wiring patterns three-dimensionally intersect with each other in an orderly manner are formed.
According to the preferred embodiment 1, the first and second wave-shape wirings 113 and 114 in which differential signals flow are provided between the first and second insulation substrates 108A and 108B using the first-fourth wiring patterns 102-105 respectively connected by the first and second electric connection members 110 and 111 such as solder. Therefore, the intervals at which the first and second wave-shape wirings 113 and 114 are provided (formation pitches) are substantially constant. As a result, the pseudo twisted pair structure can be formed without the deterioration of the characteristics of the differential signals, and the generation and influence of the electromagnetic noises can be reduced in comparison to the conventional printed wiring board.

First Step
First, first and second insulation substrates are prepared. In the present preferred embodiment, a flexible insulation substrate 108 which is bendable along a bending line 118 is prepared as the first and second insulation substrates. The flexible insulation substrate 108 comprises a first substrate region 108A′ and a second substrate region 108B′ divided by the bending line 118, and the substrate regions 108A′ and 108B′ are coupled with each other at one of the ends thereof (bending line 118) and constitute the flexible insulation substrate 108. The first substrate region 108A′ and the second substrate region 108B′ are flexibly deformable and respectively constitute the first and second insulation substrates coupled with each other when they are bent along the bending line 118.
In the case where the number of the substrates regions 108A′ and 108b′ to be provided is at least three, coupling sections therebetween are provided alternately at either of both ends thereof so that these plurality of substrate regions are formed into a bent sheet shape (in brief, one flexible insulation substrate 108).
A first wiring pattern layer 100 comprising a group of first wiring patterns 102 and a group of third wiring patterns 104 is formed on one-side surface 108a in the first substrate region 108A′ of the flexible insulation substrate 108. A second wiring pattern layer 101 comprising a group of second wiring patterns 103 and a group of fourth wiring patterns 105 is formed on the one-side surface 108a in the second substrate region 108B′ of the flexible insulation substrate 108.
The first and second wiring pattern layers 100 and 110 are formed at the following positions. The flexible insulation substrate 108 is valley-folded along the bending line 118 with the one-side surface 108a being directed inward. Then, the first and second wiring pattern layers 100 and 110 (first-fourth wiring patterns 102-105) are formed at such positions that the following states are generated when the first substrate region 108A′ and the second substrate region 108B′ are stacked on each other. Descriptions are made hereinafter based on states viewed from the thickness direction of the flexible insulation substrate 108.
In the first wiring pattern layer 100, the first wiring patterns 102 and the third wiring patterns 104 are alternately provided along a line in parallel with the bending line 118.
In the second wiring pattern layer 101, the second wiring patterns 103 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 are alternately provided along a line in parallel with the bending line 118.
Before the bending, the first wiring pattern layer 100 and the second wiring pattern layer 101 are provided at such positions that they are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the bending line 118.
Before the bending, each of the first wiring patterns 102 and each of the fourth wiring patterns 105 are provided at such positions that they are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the bending line 118.
Before the bending, each of the second wiring patterns 103 and each of the third wiring patterns 104 are provided at such positions that they are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the bending line 118.
In the first wiring patterns 102 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 at such positions that they are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the bending line 118 before the bending, the first parallel wiring portions 102a and the fourth parallel wiring portions 105a have the same dimensions, while they are disposed in parallel with each other after the bending.
In the second wiring patterns 103 and the third wiring patterns 104 at such positions that they are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the bending line 118 before the bending, the second parallel wiring portions 103a and the third parallel wiring portions 104a have the same dimensions, while they are disposed in parallel with each other after the bending.
In the first wiring patterns 102 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 at such positions that they are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the bending line 118, the first intersecting wiring portions 102b and the fourth intersecting wiring portions 105b intersect with each other after the bending.
In the second wiring patterns 103 and the third wiring patterns 104 at such positions that they are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the bending line 118, the second intersecting wiring portions 103b and the third intersecting wiring portions 104b intersect with each other after the bending.
All of the first parallel wiring portions 102a and the third parallel wiring portions 104a constituting the group of first wiring patterns 102 and the group of third wiring patterns 104 are disposed on substantially the same line despite the bending.
All of the second parallel wiring portions 103a and the fourth parallel wiring portions 105a constituting the group of second wiring patterns 103 and the group of fourth wiring patterns 105 have the same dimensions and are disposed on substantially the same line despite the bending.
All of the first intersecting wiring portions 102b and the third intersecting wiring portions 104b constituting the group of first wiring patterns 102 and the group of third wiring patterns 104 have the same dimensions and are disposed in parallel with each other despite the bending.
All of the second intersecting wiring portions 103b and the fourth intersecting wiring portions 105b constituting the group of second patterns 103 and the group of fourth wiring patterns 105 have the same dimensions and are disposed in parallel with each other despite the bending.
In the first wiring patterns 102 and the second wiring patterns 103 adjacent to the first wiring patterns 102 on one side thereof along the bending line 118 after the bending, edges of the first parallel wiring portions 102a and edges of the second intersecting wiring portions 103b overlap with each other after the bending.
In the first wiring patterns 102 and the second wiring patterns 103 adjacent to the wiring patterns 102 on the other side thereof along the bending line 118 after the bending, edges of the first intersecting wiring portions 102b and edges of the second parallel wiring portions 103a overlap with each other after the bending.
In the third wiring patterns 104 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 adjacent to the third wiring patterns 104 on one side thereof along the bending line 118 after the bending, edges of the third parallel wiring portions 104a and edges of the fourth intersecting wiring portions 105b overlap with each other after the bending.
In the third wiring patterns 104 and the fourth wiring patterns 105 adjacent to the third wiring patterns 104 on the other side thereof along the bending line 118 after the bending, edges of the third intersecting wiring portions 104b and edges of the fourth parallel wiring portions 105a overlap with each other after the bending.
After the first and second wiring pattern layers 100 and 101 are thus formed, a resist layer 112 having an electric insulation property is formed on the one-side surface 108a of the flexible insulation substrate 108 so that the first and second wiring pattern layers 100 and 101 are covered with the resist layer 112. Further, resist bore portions 106 are formed in the resist layer 112. The resist bore portion 106 is formed by means of, for example, the photolithography. The resist bore portions 106 are formed selectively at both ends of the first-fourth wiring patterns 102-105 (edges of the first-fourth parallel wiring portions 102a-105a and edges of the first-fourth wiring portions 102b-105b). The both edges of the first-wiring patterns 102-105 are exposed due to the resist bore portions 106.
At both edges of the first-fourth wiring patterns 102-105 exposed at the bottoms of the resist bore portions 106 (edges of the first-fourth parallel wiring portions 102a-105a, and edges of the first-fourth intersecting wiring portions 102b-105b), first and second electric connection members 110 and 111 are formed. A conductive adhesive or solder constitutes the first and second electric connection members 110 and 111. The first and second electric connection members 110 and 111 are formed by means of, for example, a thick-film printing process. The first electric connection member 110 is formed at both ends of the first and second wiring patterns 102 and 103. The second electric connection member 111 is formed at both ends of the third and fourth wiring patterns 104 and 105.
Second Step
After the implementation of the First Step, the flexible insulation substrate 108 is valley-folded along the bending line 118 with the one-side surface 108a directed inward. Accordingly, the edges of the first intersecting wiring portions 102b of the first wiring patterns 102 overlap with the edges of the second parallel wiring portions 103a of the second wiring patterns 103 adjacent to the first wiring patterns 102 on one side thereof along the bending line 118.
In a similar manner, the edges of the first parallel wiring portions 102a of the first wiring patterns 102 overlap with the edges of the second intersecting wiring portions 103b of the second wiring patterns 103 adjacent to the first wiring patterns 102 on the other side thereof along the bending line 118. In a similar manner, the edges of the third intersecting wiring portions 104b of the third wiring patterns 104 overlap with the edges of the fourth parallel wiring portions 105a of the fourth wiring patterns 105 adjacent to the third wiring patterns 104 on one side thereof along the bending line 118. In a similar manner, the edges of the third parallel wiring portions 104a of the third wiring patterns 104 overlap with the edges of the fourth intersecting wiring portions 105b of the fourth wiring patterns 105 adjacent to the third wiring patterns 104 on the other side thereof along the bending line 118.
In this state, the edges of the first intersecting wiring portions 102b and the edges of the second parallel wiring portions 103a are connected to each other with the first electric connection members 110 interposed therebetween. In a similar manner, the edges of the first parallel wiring portions 102a and the edges of the second intersecting wiring portions 103b are connected to each other with the first electric connection members 110 interposed therebetween.
In a similar manner, the edges of the third intersecting wiring portions 104b and the edges of the fourth parallel wiring portions 105a are connected to each other with the second electric connection members 111 interposed therebetween. In a similar manner, the edges of the third parallel wiring portions 104a and the edges of the fourth intersecting wiring portions 105b are connected to each other with the second electric connection members 111 interposed therebetween. Accordingly, the group of first wiring patterns 102 and the group of second wiring patterns 103 are serially connected to each other with the first electric connection members 110 interposed therebetween, which constitutes the first wave-shape wiring 113. In a similar manner, the group of third wiring patterns 104 and the group of fourth wiring patterns 105 are serially connected to each other with the second electric connection members 111 interposed therebetween, which constitutes the second wave-shape wiring 114.
The first wave-shape wiring 113 and the second wave-shape wiring 114 thus constituted are formed between the first substrate region 108A′ and the second substrate region 108B′ in such a way that they three-dimensionally interest with each other in the plane direction and the thickness direction of the flexible insulation substrate 108.
A thermally-bonding section between the first wiring pattern 102 and the second wiring pattern 103 or a thermally-bonding section between the third wiring pattern 104 and the fourth wiring pattern 105 may constitute the first and second electric connection members 110 and 111. In such a case, it is unnecessary to separately provide the first and second electric connection members 110 and 111 made up of the conductive adhesive or solder.
According to the preferred embodiment 3, wherein the flexible insulation substrate 108 is bent, so that the printed wiring board provided with the pseudo twisted pair structure is formed, the flexible printed wiring board according to the preferred embodiment 1 capable of reducing the generation and influence of the electromagnetic noises in comparison to the conventional flexible printed wiring board can be manufactured without any increase in costs and in a most simplified manufacturing process. Further, when the first-fourth wiring patterns 102-105 are connected by the first and second electric connection members 110 and 111, the distance between the two wave-shape wirings 113 and 114 in which the differential signals flow can be substantially constant. As a result, the pseudo twisted pair structure can be formed without the deterioration of the characteristics of the differential signals.

2. setting a bending line along which the flexible insulation substrate is bent;
3. making drawings of arrangement states of wiring patterns provided at such positions that the wiring patterns are line-symmetrical to each other relative to the set bending line and also in a state where the flexible insulation substrate is bent along the bending line; and
