FLEXIBLE PRINTED CIRCUIT CONNECTING MEANS FOR AT LEAST ONE HYBRID CIRCUIT STRUCTURE AND A PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD

摘要

The flexible printed circuit device, includes at least one hybrid circuit structure having assigned contact areas, a rigid printed circuit board, a flexible printed circuit board portion also having assigned contact areas on one end region thereof and being connected electrically to the rigid printed circuit board, a plurality of bonding electrical conductors, each of the electrical conductors being bonded at one end thereof to one of the assigned contact areas on the at least one hybrid circuit structure and, at the other end thereof, to one of the assigned contact areas on the end region of the flexible printed circuit board portion; and a rigid support, the hybrid circuit structure being mounted on the rigid support. The end region of the flexible printed circuit board portion is fixedly mounted on the rigid support in side-by-side relationship with the hybrid circuit structure. A protective frame is provided enclosing the electrical conductors electrically connecting the assigned contact areas on the hybrid circuit structure and the end region of the flexible printed circuit board portion.
