Abstract
The present invention has designed and constructed a flexible printed circuit board which has a surface portion on which is mounted an electronic component and also a board portion which is folded back over itself so as to overhang the electronic component mounting surface and in which a shield pattern is extended over at least a surface portion in opposing relationship with an electronic component and is electrically grounded in order to protect the electronic component from external electrical noise. Thus the present invention provides a flexible printed circuit board which is inexpensive to fabricate, can prevent the erroneous operation of the electronic component from external electrical noise and permits the efficient arrangement of electronic components.
