Abstract

Provided are an opto-electric hybrid board and a manufacturing method therefor. The opto-electric hybrid board includes an optical waveguide unit and an electric circuit unit having an optical element mounted thereon, the electric circuit unit being coupled to the optical waveguide unit using coupling pins. The optical waveguide unit includes fitting holes for fitting the coupling pins thereinto, which are formed in a surface of an overcladding layer, located and formed at predetermined locations with respect to one end surface of a core. The electric circuit unit includes fitting through holes for fitting the coupling pins therethrough, 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 coupling pins fit through the fitting through holes and fit into the fitting holes.
