Patent ID: 8571361

Claim:
A combined optical and electrical flexible wiring, comprising: a first film substrate; a plurality of conductors aligned parallel on a surface of the first film substrate; an optical fiber provided on the surface of the first film substrate and aligned parallel to the plural conductors; a second film substrate with which the plural conductors and the optical fiber are covered in such a manner as to include an exposed portion in which the plural conductors and the optical fiber aligned parallel on the first film substrate are partially exposed; a resin mount provided over the exposed portion in such a manner as to cover the plural conductors and the optical fiber, the resin mount being formed with a light inlet or outlet groove including a mirror surface therein; an optical-electrical conversion component formed on a surface of the resin mount, to conduct an interconversion between an electrical signal transmitted through the conductors and an optical signal transmitted through the optical fiber, while being optically connected with the optical fiber via the minor surface of the light inlet or outlet groove; and a wiring pattern formed on the surface of the resin mount, to electrically connect the optical-electrical conversion component and the conductors.
