Patent ID: 11674236

Abstract:
There is provided a plating apparatus capable of suitably measuring a micro-throwing power. A first plating apparatus (1A) includes: a first anode (12A) disposed in a first plating bathtub (11A); an insulating substrate (4) having a hole (5) and disposed in the first plating bathtub (11A); a pair of first cathodes (13AX, 13AY), each cathode being provided in the insulating substrate (4) at a bottom portion of the hole (5) and at a surface on an opening side of the hole (5); a first plating power source (14A) configured to supply an electric current between the first anode (12) and the pair of first cathodes (13AX, 13AY); and a first electric current measuring circuit (22A) configured to measure respective values of electric currents flowing through the pair of first cathodes (13AX, 13AY).
