Abstract
An aspect of the present invention makes it possible to reduce stress at a boundary between a coverlay and a terminal section of a flexible circuit board and reduce the possibility of disconnection in the terminal section in the flexible circuit board. An aspect of the present invention provides a flexible circuit board including: a reinforcing plate bonded to a whole of a terminal section and a portion of a coverlay; and a flexible plate including a holding portion and a bonding portion, the flexible plate bonding to the coverlay via only the bonding portion, the flexible plate being spaced apart from the reinforcing plate.
Claims7
A flexible circuit board comprising:
- a coverlay in which a conductor pattern is provided;
- a terminal section including the conductor pattern which is exposed from the coverlay;
- a reinforcing plate being provided at one of an upper surface and a lower surface of the flexible circuit board and bonded to a whole of the terminal section and a portion of the coverlay;
- and
- a flexible plate including a holding portion and a bonding portion, the bonding portion being provided on a terminal section side of the flexible plate relative to the holding portion, the flexible plate bonding, at the one surface of the flexible circuit board, to the coverlay via only the bonding portion, the flexible plate being spaced apart from the reinforcing plate in a direction from the terminal section to the coverlay.
