Process for production of printed circuit board

摘要

The present invention provides a process for producing a high-density printed wiring board with plated throughholes, at high productivity and reliability by a direct drawing method. The process comprises making throughholes in a substrate having an electro-conductive layer on each side; conducting plating on at least the walls of the substrate throughholes; forming a photosensitive resist film on each side of the substrate; applying an actinic radiation onto the resist film by a direct drawing method in the shape of a pattern to be obtained when the resist film is a negative type, or in the shape of a pattern reverse to a pattern to be obtained when the resist film is a positive type; forming, on the uncoated portion inside the throughholes by electrodeposition, an electrodeposition film which is insoluble in a developing solution used later and an etching solution used later but is removable with a peeling solution used later; conducting development with an appropriate developing solution to remove the resist film; removing the exposed plating layer portion and the electro-conductive layer portion present therebeneath, by etching; and then peeling the remaining resist film and the electrodeposition film inside the throughholes, with an appropriate peeling solution.
