Abstract

A method for manufacturing a printed wiring board includes forming a metal film on a surface of an insulative board, a plating resist on the metal film, and a plated-metal film on the metal film exposed from the plating resist, covering a portion of the plated-metal film with an etching resist, etching to reduce thickness of the plated-metal film exposed from the etching resist, removing the etching and plating resists, and forming a wiring having a pad for wire-bonding an electrode of an electronic component and a conductive circuit thinner than the pad by removing the metal film exposed after the plating resist is removed, a solder-resist layer on the surface of the board and wiring, an opening in the layer exposing the pad and a portion of the circuit contiguous to the pad, and a metal coating on the pad and portion of the circuit exposed through the opening.
