Conductive connection and cutting method thereof

Abstract

A conductive connection such as a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) or flexible flat cable is disclosed. The conductive connection has a substrate and conductive wires provided on the substrate. After the conductive connection is cut to be put into application, ends of the wires extend out of an edge of the substrate due to the cutting. In accordance with the present invention, the substrate edge from which the wire ends extend out has protrusions provided. Accordingly, when the conductive connection is applied to a flat display of a mobile phone, for example, short circuit resulting from the wire ends extending out of the substrate edge improperly contacting metal portion of other phone parts is avoided.
