Patent ID: 7251885

Claim:
A manufacturing method of a circuitry forming substrate comprising the steps of: forming through holes on a plate-like or sheet-like substrate formed of a single material or a plurality of materials by irradiating an energy beam thereon; forming a connecting means in said through holes formed in said hole forming step to connect electrically between the upper surface and the lower surface of said substrate or between the outer layer and the inner layer of said substrate; and forming a circuit on the surface of said substrate by disposing a conductive layer formed of a metal foil or a thin film on said surface and patterning said conductive layer to a desired configuration, wherein each respective step is performed independently or the elements of respective steps are intermingled with one another for the purpose of achieving what is intended for by said respective steps, and further comprising the steps of: attaching by adhesion a film-like separation film on both surfaces of said substrate before said step of forming holes, said separation film including a coating layer composed of a thermosetting resin; and having said separation film near a perimeter or in a periphery of said through holes made to an elevated area, which is formed of said separation film or mainly of said separation film with said substrate included and located at both sides or one side of an outside and a substrate side of said separation film in the hole forming step, so as to make a thickness of said elevated area larger at an energy beam incident side than at an energy beam releasing side.
