Abstract

A ceramic substrate is provided with via holes and these holes are primed by first depositing a palladium coating to the inside surface of the holes and then depositing an iron film onto the palladium. The primed holes are then completely filled with copper to provide conductive connections between opposite surfaces of the substrate. On one side of the substrate, input/output connector pins are brazed to the copper fillings. On the other side, printed circuitry is applied to produce a circuit module.
