Abstract

This invention provides a specially-shaped, double-face flexible printed wiring board having a small pitch at a high production yield. Metal wirings 22 and 32 formed on a base film 21, 31 of two elemental pieces 20 and 30 of a flexible printed wiring board are arranged in such a manner as to face each other while sandwiching a bonding film 16 not containing conductive particles between them, and are heat-pressed to each other. The adhesive resin film 16 so softened is pushed aside from the metal wirings 22 and 32 and the low melting point metal coating films 23 and 33 formed on the surface of the metal wirings 22 and 32 come into direct contact with each other and are fused. In this instance, the softened adhesive resin film 16 is charged between the metal wirings 22 and 32. Therefore, the molten low melting point metal does not scatter. The base films 21 and 31 are bonded by the adhesive resin film 16.
