A wiring substrate to be used in a variety of electronic apparatuses, and an input device, such as an optically transparent touch panel, using the same wiring substrate, and a method of manufacturing the same input device are disclosed. The invention simplifies a construction of the wiring substrate, reduces the number of manufacturing steps of the substrate, and makes all the connectors of the substrate in a single-sheet structure. The electrical and mechanical connections of those connectors to other connecting means can be thus highly reliable. Plural wiring patterns 22, 23, 24 and 25 , and connectors 22 A, 23 A, 24 A and 25 A are formed on a first principal surface of wiring substrate 20 . Substrate 20 includes flexible bending section P-P, and when substrate 20 is bend along bending section P-P, some connectors such as 24 A, 25 A are placed on a second principal surface opposite to the first one, so that wiring substrate 20 is formed.
