Electronic device in which a circuit board and an electric connector are electrically connected by a flexible printed wiring board

Abstract

An electronic device includes a circuit board, a flexible printed wiring board, and an electric connector. The circuit board includes an electronic circuit. The flexible printed wiring board is electrically connected to the electronic circuit. The electric connector includes a plurality of leads and a connector body. Each lead has a substantially straight end and a bent end. A surface of the connector body is substantially parallel to a surface of the flexible printed wiring board. Each bent end of the leads is located on the surface of the connector body to be substantially parallel to the surface of the flexible printed wiring board. The connector is electrically connected to the flexible printed wiring board using the leads. With the structure of the connector, the circuit board and the electric connector is relatively readily connected by the flexible printed wiring board in the manufacturing process of the electronic device.
