Abstract
A combined optical and electrical flexible wiring includes 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, 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, and a wiring pattern formed on the surface of the resin mount.
