Patent ID: 7978478

Claim:
A printed circuit board comprising: a core substrate; a chip capacitor provided in the core substrate and comprising a first electrode, a second electrode and a dielectric body interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode; an insulating layer formed over the core substrate and the chip capacitor and having a via hole opening extending to one of the first electrode and second electrode of the chip capacitor; a first via hole structure formed in the via hole opening of the insulating layer and comprising a first plating layer provided in the via hole opening and forming a via land on a surface of the insulating layer, and a plated material filling the opening of the insulating layer and covering at least a portion of the via land, the first via hole structure being directly connected to the one of the first electrode and second electrode of the chip capacitor; an interlayer insulating layer formed over the insulating layer and having at least one via hole opening extending to the first via hole structure; and at least one via hole structure formed in the at least one via hole opening of the interlayer insulating layer such that the at least one via hole structure is directly connected to the plated material filling the opening of the insulating layer, wherein the first via hole structure is larger than the at least one via hole structure in the interlayer insulating layer.
