Abstract
A method forming a composite laminate structure includes providing first and second circuit board element each having circuitry on at least one face thereof and plated through holes. A voltage plane element is provided having at least one voltage plane having opposite faces with layers of partially cured photodielectric material on each face. At least one hole is photopatterned and etched through the voltage plane element but completely isolated from the voltage plane. Each through hole in the voltage plane element is aligned with a plated through hole in each of the circuit board elements to provide a surface on the voltage plane element communicating with the plated through holes. The voltage plane is laminated between the circuit board elements and the photoimageable material on the voltage plane is fully cured. The surfaces of the voltage plane element communicating with the plated through holes in the circuit board elements are plated with a conducting material to establish a connection between the circuitry on the first and second circuit board elements.
