Flexible printed circuit board and method for producing the same

Abstract

A method for producing a flexible printed circuit board according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a through-hole formation step of preparing a base material including a base film having insulating properties and flexibility and a pair of metal films stacked on both surface sides of the base film, and forming a through-hole in the metal film on a front surface side of the base material and the base film; a filling step of stacking, by electroplating on a front surface of the base material, stacking a conductive material on a surface of the metal film on the front surface side to form a conductive material layer and to fill the through-hole with the conductive material; and a removal step of removing, by etching the front surface of the base material, a surface layer of the conductive material layer stacked on the surface of the metal film on the front surface side and a surface layer of the conductive material filling the through-hole.
