  • Patent number: 8896761
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a television receiver includes: a housing; a circuit board; a flexible printed wiring board comprising a base layer, a conductive layer, and a protective layer. The circuit board is installed in the housing. The flexible printed wiring board is configured to be electrically connected to the circuit board. The base layer includes a first surface and a second surface positioned on an opposite side of the first surface. The conductive layer is provided on at least one of the first surface and the second surface of the base layer. The protective layer is configured to cover the base layer and the conductive layer, and includes an outer edge portion positioned on an outside of a periphery portion of the base layer.

  • Patent number: 7919716
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a printed wiring board includes an insulating layer, a first conductor pattern on the insulating layer configured to be a signal line, and a second conductor pattern on the insulating layer. The second conductor pattern includes a larger conductor area than the first conductor pattern, and a slit which allows the second conductor pattern to stretch to follow a thermal expansion of the insulating layer.
