Abstract
In an opto-electric hybrid board, an electric circuit part E is provided on a first surface side of an insulative layer, and includes pads for mounting an optical element, pads for a driving device for the optical element, and electrical interconnect lines Y including interconnect line portions A connecting the pads. A metal reinforcement layer and an optical waveguide W partially overlapping the metal reinforcement layer are provided on a second surface side of the insulative layer. A portion of the metal reinforcement layer which faces the interconnect line portions A on the opposite side of the insulative layer therefrom is removed to form an opening. This opto-electric hybrid board is capable of transmitting higher-frequency electric signals because the influence of the metal reinforcement layer on electrical properties is suppressed.
