US Patent 7527516 Portable electronic device

A portable electronic device includes an electronic component, a spring terminal extending from the electronic component to supply power to the electronic component, a circuit component having a power supply section contacting the spring terminal, and a stopper for restricting a movement of the electronic component. The spring terminal has a reversible deformation limit of elastic deformation. The stopper restricts the movement of the electronic component within the reversible deformation limit of the spring terminal. This portable electronic device prevents a spring pressure of the spring terminal from decreasing, hence supplying power to the electronic component stably.
