Optical disk apparatus and a portable information processing apparatus mounting the same therein

Abstract

An optical disk apparatus, enabling effective protection from mal functions due to the radio-waves entering inside the apparatus from an outside thereof, comprises a housing 10, a tray 20, which can be inserted/discharged into the housing through an opening portion 12 thereof, a disk motor 50, which is provided in a part of the tray, for driving an optical disk rotationally, an optical pickup 30, which is also provided in a part of the tray, for recording and/or reproducing information with using an optic beam, a signal processing circuit board 40, which is provided in a part of the housing on the other hand, for processing a signal from the optical pickup mounted on the tray, wherein a flexible wiring sheet 100 or 200 is disposed in a part thereof, while being curved, and further an absorbing member 300 or 400 for radio-waves is provided at a position in vicinity of the curved portion 110 or 210, thereby lowering resonances of electromagnetic waves within an inside of the housing, in particular, in the vertical direction thereof.
