  • Patent number: 9077122
    Abstract: An anisotropic conductive member is connected to a rigid circuit board having a first electrode and a flexible circuit board having a second electrode as a land. A plurality of conductive paths penetrate an insulating base material of the anisotropic conductive member. Each conductive path has a first protrusion and a second protrusion on respective first and second surfaces of the insulating base. The height of the second protrusion is equal to or less than double the thickness of the land. The first protrusion contacts a part of the first electrode. The second protrusion contacts part of the land. The base of the anisotropic conductive member is pressed such that the insulating material is not in direct contact with the flexible circuit board. When attaching the boards, a pressure of 300 MPa to 1,000 MPa is applied to the surfaces of the lands to reduce circuit board breakage.
