Abstract

Provided are an opto-electric hybrid board and a manufacturing method therefor. An optical waveguide unit includes protruding portions which are extendingly provided at portions of at least one of an undercladding layer and an overcladding layer, and the protruding portions are located and formed at predetermined locations with respect to a light transmitting surface of a core. An electric circuit unit includes a bent portion having fitting holes into which the protruding portions fit and having an optical element. The fitting holes are located and formed at predetermined locations with respect to the optical element. The optical waveguide unit and the electric circuit unit are coupled to each other in a state in which the protruding portions fit into the fitting holes to form an opto-electric hybrid board.
