Lead terminal and electronic component including lead terminal

Abstract

An electronic component device includes first and second lead terminals arranged to hold an electronic component element, e.g. a piezoelectric resonator, and are electrically connected to the piezoelectric resonator. In the first and second lead terminals, first and second substantially L-shaped end sections are provided at ends of first and second substantially linear lead terminal bodies. The electronic component device is held by a first side and a second side of the first substantially L-shaped end section and a first side and a second side of the second substantially L-shaped end section. Lead terminals arranged to be joined to and to hold the electronic component element between the lead terminals. The lead terminals are arranged such that the distance between the lead terminals does not need to be changed even when electronic component elements having different thicknesses are used.
