Abstract: A flexible laminated sheet manufacturing method includes thermocompression-bonding an insulation film formed of a liquid crystal polymer onto a metal foil between endless belts to form a flexible laminated sheet. The thermocompression bonding includes heating the flexible laminated sheet so that the maximum temperature of the sheet is in the range from a temperature that is 45° C. lower than the melting point of the liquid crystal polymer to a temperature that is 5° C. lower than the melting point. The thermocompression bonding also includes slowly cooling the flexible laminated sheet so that an exit temperature, which is a temperature of the sheet when transferred out of the endless belts, is in the range from a temperature that is 235° C. lower than the melting point of the liquid crystal polymer to a temperature that is 100° C. lower than the melting point.

Abstract: Lands formed on a flexible printed circuit board are electrically connected with lands formed on a rigid printed circuit board through solder. At this point, solder resist is formed between neighboring two lands on the rigid printed circuit board, and is terminated with an end portion that is interposed between the rigid printed circuit board and the flexible printed circuit board. Accordingly, even when surplus solder is extruded onto the rigid printed circuit board, the solder resist can prevent solder bridges from being formed between the lands.
