Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a flexible printed circuit board includes having a base layer, and creating a pattern line and at least one conductive pole. The base layer defines at least one communication hole penetrating through the base layer. The pattern line includes two conductive circuit layers formed on opposite surfaces of the base layer. The at least one conductive pole is formed in the at least one communication hole and electrically connects the two conductive circuit layers. A diameter of each conductive pole is less than a diameter of a communication hole.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for making a flexible printed circuit board comprising:\n providing a substrate, the substrate comprising a base layer and a first copper foil layer and a second copper foil layer both formed on opposite surfaces of the base layer; defining at least one connecting hole in the substrate, each connecting hole penetrating the first copper foil layer and the base layer; forming a conductive pattern layer on the substrate through plating with copper, the conductive pattern layer comprising a conductive pole filled in the connecting hole and a pattern line formed on a surface of the first copper foil layer away from the base layer and a surface of the second copper foil layer away from the base layer, the conductive poles electrically connecting the first copper foil layer and a second copper foil layer, a diameter of the conductive pole is smaller than a diameter of the connecting hole; and performing a etching treatment on the substrate to remove regions where the first copper foil layer and a second copper foil layer are not covered with the conductive pattern layer to make the first copper foil layer and the second copper foil layer are respectively formed into a first conductive pattern layer and a second conductive pattern layer.
