Abstract
A method for fabricating a flexible printed circuit board with access on both sides includes the steps of applying a metallic conductor track sheet to a base sheet and patterning the metallic conductor track sheet in order to produce conductor tracks. A conductor track covering with first contact-making cutouts is applied over the conductor tracks. Second contact-making cutouts are produced in the base sheet material by locally removing the base sheet through the use of laser irradiation. As an alternative, the first contact-making cutouts as well as the second contact-making cutouts can be produced by removing material with a laser.
