A copper electroplating process using a anic additive was developed for filling through holes of printed circuit boards.
anic additive acted as an inhibitor of copper deposition in the presence of chloride ions and H2SO4. This copper
electroplating formula resulted in center-up filling, which differs from the bottom-up filling exhibited by blind microvias. The
inhibiting strength of anic additive and the filling capability of the plating solution strongly depended on the concentration
of H2SO4. The electrochemical behavior of anic additive was characterized by electrochemical analyses and imaging of TH
cross sections.
