Abstract
A circuit board includes a first wiring board, a second wiring board connected to the first wiring board, a third wiring board connected to the first wiring board, a connector, and an external terminal connector. A different-direction reference portion of the third wiring board extends in a direction different from an extending direction of a reference portion of the second wiring board between a first end of the third wiring board and a second end of the third wiring board. The connector electrically connects any portion between the reference portion and the second end of the second wiring board and any portion between the different-direction reference portion and the second end of the third wiring board.
