SUSPENSION BOARD AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

Disclosed is a suspension board which can be produced at low cost and enables to sufficiently prevent electrostatic discharge damage, while sufficiently suppressing noises. Specifically disclosed is a suspension board comprising a metal substrate, an insulating layer formed on the metal substrate and having an opening from which the metal substrate is exposed, a ground wiring layer formed on the insulating layer near the opening, and a ground terminal formed in the opening in contact with the metal substrate and the ground wiring layer. In this suspension board, the ground terminal is made of a metal having a melting point of 450°C or less.
