Abstract
A rigid-flexible board and a method for manufacturing the same can be provided, whereby the material yield ratio can be enhanced and the productive yield can be also enhanced. A rigid board with a step for connection and a flexible board with a connector at the edge thereof are formed independently. Then, the connecting area is spot facing processed so that the depth of the thus obtained depressed portion is equal to or lower than the thickness of the flexible board. The connector of the flexible board is electrically connected to the vertical wiring area of the depressed portion.
