A method of manufacturing a multilayer wiring board is disclosed, the method being capable of separating a substrate without large local warpage of the multilayer wiring layer and thereby improving the reliability of connection in the multilayer wiring layer. This method includes providing a laminated sheet having, in sequence, a substrate, a first release layer and a metal layer; forming a first wiring layer on the metal layer; alternately stacking insulating layers and wiring layers on the laminated sheet on which the first wiring layer is formed to give a laminate provided with a multilayer wiring layer; stacking a reinforcing sheet on the laminate provided with the multilayer wiring layer while interposing a second release layer; separating the substrate from the metal layer; and separating the reinforcing sheet from the laminate provided with the multilayer wiring layer to give the multilayer wiring board.

A flexible conductive track arrangement has a pre-flexing condition in which the arrangement is generally planar. Conductive tracks are formed from a metal layer and they are covered above and below by insulator layers. The elongate conductive tracks are generally planar but locally corrugated perpendicularly to the general plane. This enables improved binding performance, for example to form tight windings using the conductive tracks.

A flexible electrode array with hundreds or thousands channels for clinical use includes an array of at least hundreds of electrodes on a flexible biocompatible polymer substrate. Perfusion through holes are provided through the substrate. Individual elongate leads connect to each of the electrodes, the elongate lead connections being supported by the flexible biocompatible polymer substrate and extending away from the array. Flexible biocompatible polymer insulates the individual elongate lead connections and supporting the array. An interposer with individual channel connections is conductively bonded to the individual elongate lead connections. Sterile bag packaging encloses a portion of the interposer, where the outer side of the package including the array and individual elongate lead is sterile while the inner side of the packaging is non-sterile. The portion interposer inside the package is configured to connect to a circuit board within the packaging.

An inductor bridge is configured to bridge-connect a first circuit and a second circuit to each other, and includes a flexible flat plate base body, a first connector at a first end portion of the base body and connected to the first circuit, a second connector at a second end portion of the base body and connected to the second circuit, and an inductor section in the base body between the first connector and the second connector. The inductor section includes conductor patterns including a plurality of layers. The inductor bridge further includes a bending portion between the inductor section and the first connector, and a slot at an inner side of the bending portion that reduces a thickness of the base body.
