1. A circuit board comprising:
a first insulating layer;
a second insulating layer disposed on the first insulating layer;
a first via electrode passing through a partial region of the second insulating layer from an upper surface of the second insulating layer toward a lower surface of the second insulating layer; and
a first outer circuit pattern including a first pattern buried in an upper region of the second insulating layer adjacent to the upper surface of the second insulating layer and a second pattern protruded on the second insulating layer; and
wherein the first via electrode has a slope in which a width gradually decreases toward the first insulating layer;
wherein the first pattern overlaps with a slope of a portion having a largest width in the first via electrode while being spaced apart from the first via electrode in a horizontal direction and has a thickness smaller than a thickness of the first via electrode, and
wherein the second pattern does not overlap the first via electrode and the first pattern in the horizontal direction.
