Abstract
An electronic device includes an integrated connector, a printed circuit board (PCB), a case, and a cover. The integrated connector has a connector pin having a first end and a second end. The first end of the connector pin is soldered to the PCB and the second end is arranged so that it is exposed to the outside of the case via a through hole. The second end is loosely fitted to the case so that it is movable in the axial direction. Stresses are less likely to occur in the connector pin even when components of the electronic device expand or contract.
