  • Abstract
    A control law for microvia fill process optimization is proposed in this paper. The law enables linear growth of either microvia fill ratio by applying nonlinear control of cell voltage or plating current density, implemented as a set point trajectory for a potentiostat or galvanostat, respectively. Linear deposit growth enables accurate prediction of plating duration and end time. The control system is simulated and compared with results of via fill tests.
