Abstract:
A low permeability electrical feed-through involves a laminate structure having alternating conductive and insulating layers with a conductive through-hole positioned therethrough, by which a lower connector pad is electrically connected with an upper connector pad. Such a feed-through may be used at an interface between a hermetically-sealed internal environment, such as in a lighter-than-air gas filled data storage device, and the external environment. An insulating layer is positioned and configured such that an associated horizontal leak path can meet an allowable feed-through leak rate, while the collection of layers is configured such that an associated vertical leak path can meet the feed-through leak rate.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of manufacturing an electrical feed-through component, the method comprising:\n forming a first layer of conductive material over a first side of a copper clad laminate first insulator material and a second layer of conductive material over a second opposing side of said first insulator material; etching away a circular portion of said second layer of conductive material; forming a pre-impregnated glass-epoxy resin second insulator material over said second layer of conductive material and said second side of said first insulator material exposed through said circular portion of said second layer of conductive material; forming a third layer of conductive material over said second insulator material; forming a through-hole through each of said first layer of conductive material, said first insulator material, said second insulator material, and said third layer of conductive material; forming a fourth conductive material covering an inside of said through-hole; filling with a resin said through-hole inside of said fourth conductive material; forming a first electrical pad conductive material over said first layer of conductive material and a second electrical pad conductive material over said third layer of conductive material; and etching away a portion of said first electrical pad conductive material and said first layer of conductive material to form a first electrical connector pad and a portion of said second electrical pad conductive material and said third layer of conductive material and to form a second electrical connector pad; wherein said first electrical connector pad and said second electrical connector pad are electrically connected via said fourth conductive material.
