Abstract
An electronic device includes a printed circuit board having lands and an electronic element having a body and terminals. First and second lands provide a zigzag pattern. Each first land is coupled with the first terminal, and each second land is coupled with the second terminal. The second terminal includes a first parallel member, a first connection member, a second parallel member and a first mounting member. The first parallel member is completely embedded in the body, or another part of the first parallel member exposed from the body is shorter than the second parallel member. A second height between the second parallel member and the printed circuit board is smaller than a first height between the first parallel member and the printed circuit board.
Claims24
An electronic device comprising:
- a printed circuit board having a first side and a second side;
- and
- an electronic element having a body and a plurality of terminals, wherein
- the plurality of terminals is aligned along with an alignment direction,
