Abstract
An opto-electric hybrid board includes an optical waveguide and an electric circuit board. The opto-electric hybrid board has an electrode at one end portion in a first direction perpendicular to the thickness direction, and optically and electrically connects an optical element emitting light from a space between the one end portion and the other end portion. The electric circuit board includes a terminal portion electrically connected to the electrode and a support portion that supports the other end portion. The optical waveguide includes a light receiving portion for receiving light emitted from the optical element, which is positioned between the terminal portion and the support portion, when projected in the thickness direction, and a one-side surface in the thickness direction of the terminal portion is positioned at the other side in the thickness direction with respect to a one-side surface in the thickness direction of the support portion.
