Abstract

A process for fabricating a circuit substrate is provided. A dielectric layer is formed to cover a surface of a circuit stack and a patterned conductive layer, and has bonding openings exposing bonding segments of traces of the patterned conductive layer, and has plating openings exposing plating segments of the traces. A plating seed layer is formed to cover the surface of the circuit stack, the bonding segments, the plating segments, and the dielectric layer. A mask is formed to cover the plating layer and has mask openings exposing portions of the plating seed layer on the bonding segments. Portions of the plating seed layer on the bonding segments are removed with use of the mask as an etching mask. A thickening conductive layer is plated on each of the bonding segments with use of the mask as a plating mask. The mask and the plating seed layer are removed.
