A method for manufacturing a light-emitting module includes a step of providing a bonded board including a board including, on a first surface, a circuit pattern and wiring pads that are continuous with the circuit pattern and each have bottomed holes and light-emitting segments connected on a second surface of the board with an adhesive sheet interposed therebetween and including an array of light-emitting devices; a step of supplying electrically conductive paste inside the bottomed holes and on portions of the surface of the wiring pad around the bottomed holes through openings of a mask; and a step of performing thermal compression to harden the electrically conductive paste such that the thickness of the electrically conductive paste on the portions of the surface of the wiring pad is smaller than the electrically conductive paste at the timing of being disposed through the openings of the mask.

A resilient electrical connector assembly includes a base PCB and stacked layers of interconnected resilient conductive structures where each structure has at least two resilient conductive strips and at least two conductive contacts. One contact is integrated with a conductive path on the base PCB and another contact pad is positioned to establish a conductive path with a target PCB when the latter is mounted parallel to the base PCB. The resilient conductive strips flex due to a compressive force exerted between the base PCB and target PCB on the stacked layers. The resilient conductive structures are formed by depositing metal to sequentially form each of the stacked layers with one contact being initially formed in engagement with the conductive path on the base PCB.

A write wiring trace is formed on the second insulating layer to at least partially overlap with the ground layer. A distance between the ground layer and the write wiring trace in a stacking direction of the support substrate, the first insulating layer and the second insulating layer is set larger than a distance between the power wiring trace and the write wiring trace in the stacking direction.
