US Patent 8043103 Electronic component connecting apparatus, electronic unit and electronic apparatus

An electronic component connecting apparatus includes an electronic component connecting section connected to an electronic component having terminals, a circuit board connecting section which is connected to a circuit board and which is electrically connects at least one of the terminals and the circuit board with each other, and a conduction section which electrically connects outside other than the circuit board and at least one of the terminals with each other. A current path between the electronic component and the external apparatus is shortened, and a heating value is suppressed. It is possible to prevent the apparatus from being damaged, and to increase the number of signal lines while preventing the circuit from becoming complicated.
