An optical disc apparatus includes a pickup assembly, a first printed circuit board, a second printed circuit board, and a flexible printed circuit board. The pickup assembly is adapted to focus a laser beam through an objective lens onto an optical disc in order to retrieve data stored on the optical disc. The first printed circuit board is mounted on the pickup assembly and adapted to control an actuator for activating the objective lens. The second printed circuit board is mounted on the pickup assembly and adapted to instruct the first printed circuit board to activate the objective lens. The flexible printed circuit board is connected to each of the first and second printed circuit boards in order to establish electrical connection therebetween. The flexible printed circuit board is mounted in such a manner as to be twisted approximately in middle thereof.
