  • Publication number: 20210100099
    Abstract: An electronic component includes: a board body including a connection pad formed in a terminal portion that is a region including at least an edge portion of a first main surface; a first cover layer covering the first main surface so that at least the terminal portion is exposed; and a second cover layer formed on the first main surface so as to surround at least part of the terminal portion. The second cover layer has a shape in a plan view that enables positioning of a fixture. The fixture includes a terminal electrically connectable to the connection pad, and is removably connectable to the board body.

  • Patent number: 10892575
    Abstract: An electronic component includes a first substrate including first connection terminals in an end region on a first surface; and a second substrate including second connection terminals on a first surface, the second connection terminals being disposed at a position corresponding to the first connection terminals. Each of the first connection terminals includes a base and an elastic contact piece extending from the base. The elastic contact piece is elastically deformable in a direction in which the tip end portion thereof approaches and departs with respect to the base. The first connection terminals are electrically connected to the second connection terminals while having the first surface of the first substrate being opposed to the first surface of the second substrate, and the second connection terminals being pressed onto the elastic contact pieces.
