Abstract

In this paper we present progresses made into understanding the improvement of the quality of electroplated copper PCB vias submitted to megasonic agitation. Depleted ion concentration in high aspect ratio vias leads to voids and incomplete deposition of copper in PCB vias and through silicon vias. This paper presents the improved quality of electrodeposited copper in microvias with height-to-width aspect ratio (AR) of up to 8:1.
