Abstract: Disclosed is a printed circuit board having a holder for a battery, wherein the holder includes first and second contacts connected to conductive traces of the printed circuit board and wherein the holder is embodied such that a battery inserted into the holder is clamped so that poles of the battery on opposite end faces of the battery make electrical contact with the first and second contacts. The battery lies clamped between the contacts on a support region of the printed circuit board and is oriented with reference to the printed circuit board so that an imaginary line connecting the poles of the battery is essentially in parallel with the plane of the support region. The printed circuit board has connected with the support region a rigid first section, which is essentially perpendicular to the support region, and wherein the first contact is arranged on the first section.
