Abstract
An exposed connecting portion is formed by partially removing a film substrate by such laser etching while leaving a transmission line pattern. A film-type transmission line is placed in such a manner as to overlap the exposed connecting portion and a transmission line pattern on a side to be connected. Bonding, for example thermo compression bonding, is applied to the two overlapped line patterns. Since a gold ribbon is not used and overlapping of a high-dielectric substrate and the film substrate is unnecessary, impedance irregularity is reduced. This makes it possible to carry out bonding without the medium of the film substrate and a connection with high reliability may be achieved.
