Abstract

A method of making a circuitized substrate wherein fill material is forced into the substrate's holes to thus provide additional support for conductive circuitry or the like thereon, thus increasing the final product's circuit density. The fill is provided in a substantially uncured state, following which partial cure occurs. Thereafter, the fill is substantially fully cured and the aforementioned circuit elements may then be provided directly thereon. Alternatively, a dual fill process is used with both quantities of uncured fill being disposed in each hole and then cured by a singular UV exposure step.
