Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This is a divisional application of U.S. application Ser. No. 11/180,780 filed on Jul. 14, 2005, which and claims priority of Japanese Patent Application Number 2005-105232, filed on Mar. 31, 2005, both of which are hereby incorporated by reference. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     The present invention generally relates to a multilayer wiring board and its manufacturing method, and more particularly to a coreless interposer board and its manufacturing method in which a plurality of resin layers and a plurality of wiring layers are alternately arranged in laminated formation. 
     2. Description of the Related Art 
     In recent years, development of SIP (System In Package) of various types is carried out in order to meet the demands for high-speed, high-density LSI packages. SIP is a kind of the technology for incorporating two or more semiconductor chips to a single semiconductor package. Development of an interposer board on which two or more semiconductor chips are carried is also briskly performed with the development of SIP. 
     For example, the interposer board is a wiring board in which wiring layers made of metal, such as copper, and insulating layers made of resin, such as an epoxy or polyimide resin, are laminated alternately. 
     Usually, a plurality of interposer boards are formed in a comparatively large base board collectively, and thereafter a dicing process is performed to cut the base board into the respective interposer boards. 
     Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No. 10-027971 discloses the cutting process of an organic thin-film multilayer wiring board in order for preventing the removal of the organic thin film from the substrate after cutting and the cleavage of the substrate after cutting. 
     Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No. 10-135157 discloses the multilayer wiring board and its manufacturing method in order for preventing the removal of the interlayer insulation film in a dicing process. 
     In the conventional methods mentioned above, it is necessary to cut mechanically the resin layers for which the laminated formation is carried out with a dicing blade etc. By the external force applied in the dicing process, the resin layers for which the laminated formation is carried out may be damaged, or the film removal may occur in the interface of the respective resin layers. 
       FIG. 28  shows the composition of a conventional multilayer wiring board. The multilayer wiring board  20  of  FIG. 28  is a multilayer wiring board on which a plurality of wiring boards (in this example, two pieces) are arranged sidewise, and the first through fourth resin layers  1 - 4  and the first through fourth wiring layers  5 - 8  in each wiring board are laminated alternately and these layers do not have a core substrate. 
     When the multilayer wiring board  20  is cut into the respective wiring boards, the cutting area  9  indicated by the dotted line in  FIG. 28  is mechanically cut with a dicing blade. 
     In the case of the multilayer wiring board  20  of  FIG. 28 , all the resin layers  1 - 4  are mechanically cut by the dicing blade. In the mechanical cutting, all the resin layers tend to be damaged, and the removal of each resin layer in the interface easily occurs. 
     Even if the removal of the resin layer in the resin interface at the time of cutting is avoided, there is the problem that reliability of the respective wiring boards deteriorates due to the resin damage at the time of cutting. 
     In order to avoid the problem, for example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No. 10-027971 proposes the method of cutting mechanically the multilayer wiring board with a dicing blade after the resin layers are removed by a laser beam cutting. 
     However, in the proposed method of Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No. 10-027971, the protection of the cross-section of the resin layers at the time of cutting mechanically is not taken into consideration. Moreover, the introduction of the laser machine for cutting the resin layers, the increase in the manufacturing processes needed, etc. are necessary, which will raise the cost. Thus, the proposed method is not feasible in the actual production line. 
     On the other hand, the proposed method of Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No. 10-135157 is effective for the multi-layer wiring board having the core substrate on which the resin layers and the wiring layers are held. 
     However, in the case of the coreless wiring board in which all the layers are formed of resin and which does not have a core substrate, it cannot be said that the proposed method of Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No. 10-135157 provides adequate effects of preventing the removal of the interlayer insulation film when cutting mechanically the wiring board. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     An object of the present invention is to provide an improved multilayer wiring board in which the above-mentioned problems are eliminated. 
     Another object of the present invention is to provide a multilayer wiring board which is highly reliable and excellent in the electrical properties by reducing or avoiding the resin removal and damage at the time of mechanical cutting. 
     Another object of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing method of a multilayer wiring board which is highly reliable and excellent in the electrical properties by reducing or avoiding the resin removal and damage at the time of mechanical cutting. 
     In order to achieve the above-mentioned objects, the present invention provides a multilayer wiring board which comprises: a plurality of wiring boards in which wiring layers and resin layers in each wiring board are alternately arranged in a laminated formation, wherein all the resin layers and the wiring layers, except a resin layer in the plurality of wiring boards, are separated in a same position between the plurality of wiring boards and the resin layer is continuous in the same position. 
     In order to achieve the above-mentioned objects, the present invention provides a manufacturing method of a multilayer wiring board having a plurality of wiring boards in which wiring layers and resin layers in each wiring board are alternately arranged in a laminated formation, the manufacturing method comprising steps of: forming a first resin layer and a first wiring layer on a supporting board; forming a second resin layer and a second wiring layer on the first resin layer; forming two or more additional resin layers and two or more additional wiring layers on the second resin layer alternately so that all the resin layers and the wiring layers, except a resin layer in the plurality of wiring boards, are separated in a same position between the plurality of wiring boards; and removing the supporting board. 
     In the multilayer wiring board of the present invention, the cutting area where the multilayer wiring board is cut into the respective wiring boards is constituted by only one resin layer. The exposed resin layers among the plurality of resin layers are the top layer and the bottom layer only, and other resin layers are not exposed. 
     In order to absorb the damage to the resin layers at the time of mechanical cutting, the cutting area is provided as the structurally weak layer. The resin layer being cut is made thinner, and the cutting of the multilayer wiring board itself is made easy. 
     Moreover, in the multilayer wiring board of the present invention, the resin cutting plane is covered with a metal film in order to protect the resin cutting plane. The grounding of each wiring layer is connected with a metal film. The multilayer wiring board of the present invention is configured so that all the laminated resin layers are not cut, but all the resin layers, except the resin layer being cut, are evacuated from the cutting area beforehand. 
     By this composition, it is possible to avoid the removal of the resin layer by the external force at the time of mechanical cutting. By preventing the exposure of the end face of each of the plurality of laminated resin layers, it is possible to reduce the damage to the laminated resin surface at the time of mechanical cutting, and the reliability is improved. 
     Moreover, in order to reduce the damage to the main part of the interposer board, the cutting area is provided as the structurally weak layer. The resin layer being cut is made thinner, and the cutting of the multilayer wiring board itself is made easy. By lowering the force exerting on the resin layer itself, the damage to the interposer board can also be reduced. 
     Moreover, the damage to the cross-section (end face) of the laminated resin layers at the time of mechanical cutting is prevented by covering the laminated resin layers with a metal film. In addition, the mechanical strength in the removing direction can also be raised with the metal film interconnecting the edges of the top and bottom resin layers. It is possible to also raise the reliability. Further, the electrical properties can also be raised by connecting the ground terminals of the wiring layers mutually. 
     According to the multilayer wiring board and its manufacturing method of the present invention, the damage at the time of mechanical cutting can be reduced, and it is possible to provide the interposer board whose reliability and electrical properties are raised.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     A description will now be given of the preferred embodiments of the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. 
       FIG. 1A  and  FIG. 1B  show the composition of the multilayer wiring board in one embodiment of the invention. 
     For the sake of convenience, a different hatching is given to show each of the first through fourth resin layers  1 - 4  in the embodiment of  FIG. 1A  and  FIG. 1B , but each layer is made of the same resin material. 
     In the multilayer wiring board  10  of  FIG. 1A , the two wiring boards are arranged in which the laminated formation of each wiring board is performed so that the plurality of resin layers (namely, the first resin layer  1 , the second resin layer  2 , the third resin layer  3  and the fourth resin layer  4 ) and the plurality of wiring layers (namely, the first wiring layer  5 , the second wiring layer  6 , the third wiring layer  7  and the fourth wiring layer  8 ) are alternately arranged, and each layer does not have a core substrate. In order to cut the multilayer wiring board  10  into the respective wiring boards, the wiring boards in the multilayer wiring board  10  of this embodiment are continuously interconnected by the first resin layer  1  only. 
     Similarly, in the multilayer wiring board  10  of  FIG. 1B , the two wiring boards are arranged in which the laminated formation of each wiring board is performs so that the first through fourth resin layers  1 - 4  and the first through fourth wiring layers  5 - 8  are alternately arranged, and each layer does not have a core substrate. In order to cut the multilayer wiring board  10  into the respective wiring boards, the wiring boards in the multilayer wiring board  10  of this embodiment are continuously interconnected by the third resin layer  3  only. 
     For example, in the multilayer wiring board  10  of  FIG. 1A , only the first resin layer  1  is cut to produce the two wiring boards, and the other resin layers  2 - 4  among the plurality of resin layers  1 - 4  are formed so that they are evacuated from the cutting area  9 , respectively. 
     As mentioned above, in the conventional multilayer wiring board of  FIG. 28 , all the resin layers are cut to produce the two wiring boards, and all the resin layers may be damaged at the time of cutting. 
     In contrast, in the present embodiment, only one resin layer is cut and the two wiring boards are produced, and it is possible to reduce the damage of the plurality of resin layers at the time of cutting. 
     Moreover, in the multilayer wiring board  10  of  FIG. 1B , the third resin layer  3  which is formed to be continuous with the intermediate resin layer among the resin layers  1 - 4  of each wiring board has a raised portion in the cutting area  9  between the two wiring boards, and this raised portion is flush with the outside resin layer  1 . And only the third resin layer  3  is cut at the raised portion to produce the two wiring boards, and the other resin layers  1 ,  2  and  4  among the plurality of resin layers  1 - 4  are formed so that they are evacuated from the cutting area  9 , respectively. 
     In this embodiment, the thickness of each of the resin layers  1 - 4  is about 4-6 micrometers, and the thickness of each of the wiring layers  5 - 8  is about 3-8 micrometers. The resin layers  1 - 4  are made of any of a polyimide resin, a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a silicon-based resin and BCB, and the wiring layers  5 - 8  are made of any of copper (Cu), nickel (Ni) and gold (Au), solely or in combination. 
     In  FIG. 1A  and  FIG. 1B , the cutting area  9  is provided to show the portion where the multilayer wiring board  10  is cut into the respective wiring boards. For example, when the width of a dicing blade used for cutting is about 150 micrometers, the width of the cutting area  9  is about 200 micrometers. 
       FIG. 26  shows the composition of an interposer board to which the multilayer wiring board of the present invention is applied. 
     In the interposer board  30  shown in  FIG. 26 , the capacitor  31  and the inductor  32  are formed inside the wiring boards which are produced by cutting the multilayer wiring board  10 . 
     In each of the wiring boards, the laminated formation of the first through fourth resin layers  1 - 4  is performed, and each wiring board is provided with the cross-section where only the first resin layer  1  is cut at the dicing process. Therefore, the damage at the time of cutting of the multilayer wiring board  10  can be reduced, and it is possible to provide the structure of an interposer board with the reliability and electrical properties being raised. 
       FIG. 27  shows the composition of a semiconductor device in which the interposer board to which the multilayer wiring board of the invention is applied is mounted on the mounting board. 
     In the semiconductor device  40  shown in  FIG. 27 , the composition of a multi-chip module is provided in which the semiconductor chip  43  (the first chip) and the semiconductor chip  44  (the second chip) are mounted on the mounting board  41  through the interposer board  30 . In this case, the interposer board  30  has the same composition as the interposer board  30  of  FIG. 26 . 
     In this semiconductor device  40 , each of the semiconductor chips  43  and  44  is fixed to the interposer board  30  via the under-fill  47 . The semiconductor chip  43  and the semiconductor chip  44  are connected to the electrode pads on the interposer board  30  through the solder bumps  46  which are formed on the bottom surface of each of the semiconductor chips  43  and  44 . 
     The interposer board  30  is fixed to the mounting board  41  via the under-fill  49 . The solder bumps  42  are formed on the bottom surface of the mounting board  41 , and this semiconductor device  40  is further mounted on the mother board (not illustrated). 
     Next,  FIG. 2A  and  FIG. 2B  show the composition of modifications of the multilayer wiring board of  FIG. 1A . 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 2A  and  FIG. 2B , only the top resin layer  1  and the bottom resin layer  4  are exposed to the outside of the multilayer wiring board, so that the end face of the other resin layers  2  and  3  is protected. By this composition, it is possible to prevent the damage at the time of the cutting process from reaching the resin end face, and the reliability can be improved. 
     Moreover, in the multilayer wiring board  10  of  FIG. 2B , the fourth resin layer  4  which is formed to be continuous with the outside resin layer  1  among the resin layers  1 - 4  of each wiring board has a raised portion in the cutting area  9  between the two wiring boards, and this raised portion is covers an end face of the other resin layers  2  and  3  among the plurality of resin layers  1 - 4 . And only the first resin layer  1  is cut at the raised portion to produce the two wiring boards, and the other resin layers  2  and  3  among the plurality of resin layers  1 - 4  are formed so that they are evacuated from the cutting area  9 , respectively. 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 2A  and  FIG. 2B , the thickness of each of the resin layers  1 - 4  is about 4-6 micrometers, and the thickness of each of the wiring layers  5 - 8  is about 3-8 micrometers. The resin layers  1 - 4  are made of any of a polyimide resin, a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a silicon-based resin and BCB, and the wiring layers  5 - 8  are made of any of Cu, Ni and Au, solely or in combination. 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 2A  and  FIG. 2B , the distance from the outside surface near the cutting area  9  of the resin layer  4  to the end face of the resin layers  2  and  3  is about 10-30 micrometers. However, when the adhesion force of the resin layers to be used is extremely weak, in order to achieve a level of strength, the distance of this portion may be set to about 100 micrometers. 
       FIG. 3  shows the composition of a modification of the multilayer wiring board of  FIG. 1A . 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 3 , the fourth resin layer  4  is used in the cutting area  9  which will be cut at a next step, the end face of the other resin layers  1 - 3  is covered with the raised portion of the fourth resin layer  4 , and it is possible to reduce the damage at the time of cutting more effectively. In connection with this, the reliability of the multilayer wiring board is also improved. The end face of the resin layers  1 - 3  for which the laminated formation is performed is covered with the raised portion of the fourth resin layer  4 , and it is possible to realize a compact interposer board without the damage and without lowering the reliability. 
     Moreover, in the multilayer wiring board  10  of  FIG. 3 , the fourth resin layer  4  which is formed to be continuous with the outside resin layer  1  among the resin layers  1 - 4  of one of the two wiring boards has a raised portion in the cutting area  9  between the two wiring boards, and this raised portion is flush with the outside resin layer  1  among the resin layers  1 - 4  of the other of the two wiring boards. 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 3 , the thickness of each of the resin layers  1 - 4  is about 4-6 micrometers, and the thickness of each of the wiring layers  5 - 8  is about 3-8 micrometers. The resin layers  1 - 4  are made of any of a polyimide resin, a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a silicon-based resin and BCB, and the wiring layers  5 - 8  are made of any of Cu, Ni and Au, solely or in combination. 
       FIG. 4A  and  FIG. 4B  show the composition of a multilayer wiring board in another embodiment of the present invention. 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 4A  and  FIG. 4B , the isolated areas  1 A which are weaker than the structure of the interposer board in strength are formed in the region near the upper surface of the resin layer  2  (or  4 ) which will be cut as the crumple zone. By this composition, the damage at the time of cutting can be absorbed with the isolated areas  1 A, and the damage to the interposer board can be reduced. 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 4A , the isolated areas  1 A are formed in the second resin layer  2  by using the resin material of the first resin layer  1 . When cutting the second resin layer  2 , the portion of the isolated areas  1 A serves as the crumple zone  9 A, and it is possible to reduce the damage to the portion outside the isolated areas  1 A. 
     In the embodiment of  FIG. 4B , the isolated areas  1 A are formed in the fourth resin layer  4  by using the resin material of the first resin layer  1 . When cutting the fourth resin layer  4 , the portion of the isolated areas  1 A serves as the crumple zone  9 A, and it is possible to reduce the damage to the portion outside the isolated areas  1 A. 
     The size and distance of the isolated areas  1 A are usually about 10-30 micrometers, respectively. It is better to set up the size and distance for every resin layer since the optimum value for every resin varies according to the kind of the resin. 
     Also in this embodiment, the thickness of each of the resin layers is about 4-6 micrometers, and the thickness of each of the wiring layers is about 3-8 micrometers. The resin layers are made of any of a polyimide resin, a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a silicon-based resin and BCB, and the wiring layers are made of any of Cu, Ni and Au, solely or in combination. 
       FIG. 5A  through  FIG. 5E  show the composition of modifications of the multilayer wiring board of  FIG. 4A . 
     In the embodiments of  FIG. 5A  through  FIG. 5E , the size of the isolated areas  1 A is the same as that of the embodiment of  FIG. 4A . 
     However, unlike the embodiment of  FIG. 4A , the isolated areas  1 A are not covered with the continuous resin layer. For this reason, the external force at the time of mechanical cutting can be distributed more effectively. 
     It is also effective to form the isolated areas for every resin layer, and to form the crumple zone  9 A, as shown in  FIG. 5C ,  FIG. 5D  and  FIG. 5E . 
     Also in the embodiment of  FIG. 5A  to  FIG. 5E , the thickness of each of the resin layers  1 - 4  is about 4-6 micrometers, and the thickness of each of the wiring layers  5 - 8  is about 3-8 micrometers. The resin layers  1 - 4  are made of any of a polyimide resin, a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a silicon-based resin and BCB, and the wiring layers  5 - 8  are made of any of Cu, Ni, and Au, solely or in combination. 
       FIG. 6A  and  FIG. 6B  show the composition of the multilayer wiring board in another embodiment of the present invention.  FIG. 7A  and  FIG. 7B  show the composition of modifications of the multilayer wiring board of  FIG. 6A . 
     In the present embodiment, the end face of the other resin layers  2 - 4  other than the resin layer  1  which will be cut at a next step is covered with the metal film  11 , and it is possible to raise the reliability of the multilayer wiring board more. 
     It is possible to strengthen the cross section more firmly according to the anchor effect by forming the metal films  11 ,  12 , and  13  to cover the end face of each of the resin layers  2 ,  3  and  4 , respectively. 
     Also in the embodiment of  FIG. 6A  to  FIG. 7B , the thickness of each of the resin layers  1 - 4  is about 4-6 micrometers, and the thickness of each of the wiring layers  5 - 8  is about 3-8 micrometers. The resin layers  1 - 4  are made of any of a polyimide resin, a phenol resin, an epoxy resin, a silicon-based resin and BCB, and the wiring layers  5 - 8  are made of any of Cu, Ni and Au, solely or in combination. 
       FIG. 8A  and  FIG. 8B  show the composition of a modification of the multilayer wiring board of  FIG. 6A .  FIG. 8A  is a cross-sectional view of the multilayer wiring board of the present embodiment, and  FIG. 8B  is a top view of the portion of the multilayer wiring board indicated by the dotted line A in  FIG. 8A . 
     In the present embodiment, the end face of the resin layers  2 - 4  other than the resin layer  1  is covered with the metal film  14 , and this metal film  14  is connected with the metal film  13  formed on the resin layer  1 .

It is possible to cut the thinly formed second resin layer  2  by a smaller cutting force, and the damage to the interposer board can be reduced further. 
     The depth of the concave portion  2 A formed in the cutting area  9  in the second resin layer  2  is about 1-4 micrometers, and the thickness of the second resin layer  2  of this portion is above 1-3 micrometers.

       FIG. 11A  through  FIG. 11E  are diagrams for explaining the manufacturing method of the multilayer wiring board concerning the embodiment of  FIG. 1A . 
     In the present embodiment, as shown in  FIG. 11A , after the first wiring layer  5  is formed on the supporting board  17 , the first resin layer  1  is formed. The via (not illustrated) for connecting electrically the first wiring layer  5  and the second wiring layer  6  is formed in the first resin layer  1 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 11B , the second wiring layer  6  is formed on the first resin layer  1 . And as shown in  FIG. 11C , the second resin layer  2  is formed on the first resin layer  1  and the second wiring layer  6 . 
     At this time, the second resin layer  2  is formed so that it is evacuates from the cutting area  9  which will be cut at a next process. 
     As shown in  FIG. 11D , the third and fourth wiring layers  7  and  8  and the third and fourth resin layers  3  and  4  are formed similarly. 
     As shown in  FIG. 11A , the first resin layer  1  and the first wiring layer  5  are formed on the supporting board  17  which is made of silicon (Si). In this case, a silicon wafer is used. In this embodiment, the resin layers  1 - 4  are formed using the polyimide resin 1-8150G from Asahi Chemical Co. 
     Each resin layer is formed into a thin film which is about 5-6 micrometers thick after resin curing. Since the above-mentioned polyimide resin is photosensitive polyimide resin, when forming the second through fourth resin layers  2 - 4  and making them being evacuated from the cutting area  9 , they can be formed by performing the photo-lithography process. 
     Specifically, after the above-mentioned polyimide resin is applied, it is exposed to the light exposure of about 500 mJ using the g-line steppers, such as TITAN from ULTRATEC Co. Then, the development and rinsing are performed using the developing solution A-430 and the rinsing solution C-260 from KURARIANTO JAPAN Co. At this time, the via for electrically connecting the respective wiring layers is also formed simultaneously. 
     After each resin layer is formed, a wiring layer is formed on the resin layer. For example, the case where each wiring layer is formed using the electrolytic plating method will be explained. 
     On the resin layer, an electric supply layer is formed by the sputtering process. In the case of this embodiment, titanium (Ti) and Cu are formed by a thickness of 100 nm and 250 nm, respectively. 
     After the sputtering process, the patterning is performed with the photoresist. For example, the posi-resist LA900 from TOKYO OHKA KOGYO Co is used as the photoresist, and the exposure of about 1000 mJ is performed by using the g-line stepper. 
     Similarly, the development is performed using the developing solution P-7 from TOKYO OHKA KOGYO Co., and the pattern is formed. After the pattern is formed, the electrolytic plating is performed to form the wiring layer. 
     The first through fourth wiring layers  1 - 4  are made of any of Cu, Ni and Au, solely or in combination. In this embodiment, the first wiring layer  1  is made of Ni/Au, the second and third wiring layers  2  and  3  are made of Cu, and the fourth wiring layer  4  is made of Cu/Ni/Au, respectively. 
     Next, the formation method of the second and third wiring layers  2  and  3  will be explained. 
     For example, the plated Cu layer is formed in a thickness of about 3 micrometers using CU300 from EEJA Co. The etching process to remove the electric supply layer is performed after the plating formation. An acetic peroxide and a hydrofluoric acid are used for the etching process of Cu and Ti, respectively. As for other wiring layers, the plating material is changed suitably and the wiring layers are formed similarly. 
     As shown in  FIG. 11E , after all the resin layers  1 - 4  and the wiring layers  5 - 8  are formed, the supporting board  17  is removed. In this case, the removal of the Si substrate can be easily performed in such a manner that, after the supporting board  17  is thinned to a thickness of about 50 micrometers using a grinding machine, the thinned board is dissolved with a mixed acid of a hydrofluoric acid and a nitric acid. 
     By using the above-mentioned manufacturing method of  FIG. 11A  to  FIG. 11E , it is possible to form easily the multilayer wiring board  10  in which the resin layers  2 - 4  are evacuated from the cutting area  9 , without performing a special process.
