Abstract
Provided are an opto-electric hybrid board which eliminates the necessity of an aligning operation of a core of an optical waveguide unit and an optical element of an electric circuit unit and which is excellent in mass-productivity, 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. The optical waveguide unit includes fitting holes which are formed in a surface of an overcladding layer and are located and formed at predetermined locations with respect to one end surface of a core. The electric circuit unit includes protruding portions which fit into the fitting holes and are located and formed at predetermined locations with respect to the optical element.
