Abstract
A method for manufacturing a mid-plane. a multi-layer board having a connection assembly is provided and a layer with a channel formed therein to define a perimeter of a connector area is provided. The layer is bonded to the multi-layer board such that the connector area overlaps the part of the connection assembly of the multi-layer board. At least a portion of the connector area in the layer is removed to expose the connection assembly of the multi-layer board. A rigid multilayer is also disclosed. The rigid multilayer includes a multi-layer board and a layer. The multi-layer board has a connection assembly. The layer has a channel formed therein to define a perimeter of a connector area. The layer is bonded to the multi-layer board such that the connector area overlaps the connection assembly of the multi-layer board. The connector area can then be removed such as by depth controlled routing. As will be understood by one skilled in the art, the depth tolerance is not critical because the layer is pre-formed with the channel prior to formation of the rigid multi-layer.
Description
- The present patent application claims priority to the provisional patent application filed on Jul. 8, 2003 and identified by U.S. Ser. No. 60/485,765, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
- Not Applicable.
- In general, the present invention relates to method for manufacturing a mid-plane. In the method, a multi-layer board and a layer are provided. The layer is preferably a dielectric layer. The multi-layer board has a connection assembly. The layer has a channel formed therein to define a perimeter of a connector area. The layer is bonded to the multi-layer board such that the connector area overlaps the connection assembly of the multi-layer board. Then, at least a portion of the connector area in the layer is removed to expose the connection assembly of the multi-layer board.
- The present invention also relates to a rigid multilayer. The rigid multilayer includes a multi-layer board and a layer. The layer is preferably a dielectric layer. The multi-layer board has a connection assembly. The layer has a channel formed therein to define a perimeter of a connector area. The layer is bonded to the multi-layer board such that the connector area overlaps the connection assembly of the multi-layer board. The connector area can then be removed such as by depth controlled routing to expose the connection assembly of the multi-layer board. As will be understood by one skilled in the art, the depth tolerance is not critical because the layer is pre-formed with the channel prior to formation of the rigid multi-layer.
- The layer is preferably bonded to the multi-layer board with a non-flowable adhesive or a low flowable adhesive. The non-flowable adhesive or low flowable adhesive can be certain types of pre-preg known in the art. The channel pre-formed in the layer prevents any flow of the adhesive from entering the connector area. Thus, the adhesive does not interfere with or otherwise damage the connection assembly formed in the multi-layer board.
