Abstract
Polymer (preferably polyimide) sheets with laser ablated through-holes plated with metal are used for making electrical connections to specified microcircuits, especially unbumped microchips and Tape Automated Bonding (TAB) articles. Bonding with different melting-point materials at opposite ends of the plated holes is disclosed. Preferred polyimides are those derived from polymerisation of 4-4'-biphenyldianhydride and (4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, or 4,4'-diaminobiphenylether, or phenylenediamine, preferably p-phenylenediamine).
