Abstract
The present invention relates to a connection structure for a printed wiring board to be electrically connected to a FPC. The FPC comprises a long substrate, a plurality of conductors laminated on the surface of the substrate and extending along an axial direction of the substrate. The printed wiring board comprises a planar main wiring board, an insertion opening, and a plurality of the through-hole terminals. Each of the conductors of the FPC abuts the through-hole terminal upon the insertion of the FPC into the insertion opening of the printed wiring board. According to the invention, a connector structure to be connected to FPC is provided inside the printed wiring board in order to mount circuit element in high density, and thus improve degree of freedom in designing wiring pattern.
