Abstract: A printed circuit comprising an electrically insulating substrate and an electrically conductive layer on the substrate, this layer being a pseudo-elastic or elastically deformable alloy that undergoes significant deformations in a reversible manner and is a copper alloy containing at least 50% by weight copper in the form of large-grained polycrystals that undergo martensitic transformation. Preferably, the layer contains 60-80% by weight of copper, the large-grained polycrystals having a grain size of at least about 3 mm. The martensitic transformation takes place within the temperature range -55.degree. C. to +125.degree. C., and the layer has a thickness between 30.mu. and 200.mu., preferably about 100.mu..
