FLEXIBLE WIRING BOARD, MANUFACTURING METHOD, ELECTRONIC MODULE, ELECTRONIC UNIT, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17877729 titled 'FLEXIBLE WIRING BOARD, MANUFACTURING METHOD, ELECTRONIC MODULE, ELECTRONIC UNIT, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a flexible wiring board that includes a signal line and a conductive portion that overlaps the signal line. The conductive portion consists of multiple line portions that are connected and intersect with each other.

  • The flexible wiring board includes a signal line and a conductive portion that overlaps the signal line.
  • The conductive portion consists of multiple line portions that extend in different directions.
  • The conductive portion includes a smaller line portion that is connected to the other line portions and is provided between them.
  • The conductive portion also includes another line portion that is connected to the smaller line portion and is provided between its parts.
  • The smaller line portion and the other line portion intersect with each other.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Flexible circuit boards for electronic devices.
  • Wearable technology, such as smart clothing or accessories.
  • Foldable or rollable displays.
  • Flexible sensors or actuators.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides flexibility and adaptability in circuit design.
  • Allows for compact and efficient routing of signal lines.
  • Enables the creation of complex and interconnected circuitry in a flexible form factor.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased design flexibility for electronic devices.
  • Improved reliability and durability of flexible circuit boards.
  • Enhanced functionality and performance of wearable technology.
  • Enables the development of innovative and compact electronic devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

A flexible wiring board includes a signal line and a conductive portion that overlaps the signal line in plan view. The conductive portion includes a first line portion extending in a first direction and having a first part and a second part, a second line portion extending in a second direction and having a third part and a fourth part, and a third line portion. The third line portion has a line width smaller than a line width of the first part and a line width of the second part, is connected to the first and second parts, and is provided between the first part and the second part. The conductive portion includes a fourth line portion that is connected to the third part and the fourth part and that is provided between the third part and the fourth part. The third line portion and the fourth line portion intersect.
