Claim 14:
15. A method of producing a printed circuit board assembly, the method comprising:
providing (i) a flexible printed circuit board, and (ii) a support, wherein the flexible printed circuit board comprises a first PCB region and a second PCB region, and wherein the support comprises a first support region and a second support region, wherein the support comprises a deformable material;
a folding stage comprising:
a PCB folding comprising folding at least part of the second PCB region over at least part of the first PCB region, to provide an at least partly folded flexible printed circuit board; and
a support folding comprising folding at least part of the second support region over at least part of the first support region, to provide an at least partly folded support, wherein at least part of the at least partly folded flexible printed circuit board is configured between the first support region and the second support region; wherein the PCB folding precedes the support folding or wherein the support folding includes the PCB folding;

functionally coupling a functional component to the at least partly folded flexible printed circuit board such that the functional component is not covered by the at least partly folded flexible printed circuit board and not by the at least partly folded support; and
wherein the functional component is configured at the first PCB region and comprises a solid state light source.
