Abstract
This invention intends to improve the productivity and quality and reduce the production cost by adopting the same structure for the connector as that of the wiring board. A connector-equipped wiring board (A), wherein a connector (30) connected to a wiring board (10) with an electronic component (C) mounted thereon through a flexible wiring plate (20) can be routed to the wiring board (10), characterized in that said connector (30) is formed of the same board as the wiring board (10) is formed, and has an exposed terminal pattern (31) formed on its surface and electrically connected to said flexible wiring plate (20).
Claims8
A connector-equipped wiring board, wherein a connector connected to a wiring board with an electric component mounted thereon through a conductive member can be freely routed to the wiring board, wherein said connector is made of a board, having substantially same thickness as that of said wiring board, on which an exposed terminal pattern is formed in a stripe shape on its surface, and electrically connected to said conductive member, further wherein said connector is formed in a same frame board as that of said wiring board being formed, and cut out into as a separate segment from said same frame board when said wiring board is cut out.
A method of manufacturing a connector-equipped wiring board, wherein a connector connected to a wiring board with an electronic component mounted thereon through a conductive member can be freely routed to the wiring board, comprising the steps of:
- a board member making step of making a board member having a wiring pattern corresponding to said wiring board and another board member with a terminal pattern exposed on the surface so as to correspond to said connector, and arranging these boards as a pair;
- mounting step of mounting an electronic component on the surface of the board member corresponding to said wiring board so as to communicate with the wiring pattern of the board member;
- and
- connecting step of connecting said wiring pattern and said terminal pattern to each other through said conductive member.
