The invention concerns a method of making multilayered constructions
useful in forming capacitors and resistors, which may be used in the
manufacture of printed circuit boards and microelectronic devices.
According to the inventive method, a thermosetting polymer layer or
layers are attached directly onto a heat resistant film layer,
specifically on the side(s) of the heat resistant film to be attached to
an electrically conductive layer having an electrical resistance material
layer thereon. Attaching the adhesive to the heat resistant film rather
than the electrically conductive layer streamlines the manufacturing
process, particularly in the formation of the electrical resistance
material layer onto the electrically conductive layer. This also results
in better precision and uniformity of the multilayered construction.
