Flexible printed circuit with EMI protection

摘要

In a flexible printed circuit (10) for electrically connecting between a fixed portion and a movable portion comprising a flexible base layer (11), a conductive layer (13) formed on a principal surface (11a) of the flexible base layer through a first adhesive agent (12), and a cover layer (15) formed on the conductive layer through a second adhesive agent (14), copper foil (22) is pasted on an upper surface (15a) of the cover layer through a conductive adhesive agent (21). The copper foil is electrically connected to a ground portion (110) using solder. The fixed portion may be an optical disc drive's body (300). The movable portion may be an optical pickup unit (100) comprising an electromagnetic radiation source (200). The copper foil is for shielding electromagnetic noises radiated from the electromagnetic radiation source. The copper foil may be disposed only the vicinity of the electromagnetic radiation source.
