The wiring board having terminals disclosed in this invention is aimed at providing a narrow pitch and downsized design for connecting circuit boards of various kinds of electronic devices. Each terminal has an L-shaped or bar-shaped coupling section A having an uneven shape and held between a top substrate and a bottom substrate

Wiring board having terminal

An EL element includes plural light transmitting front-electrodes forming plural lines by wiring and plural back-electrodes forming plural lines by further wiring. The front-electrodes are angled relative to the back-electrodes and a light-emitting layer is disposed between the front-electrodes and the back-electrodes. The EL element combined with a controller works as a lighting unit, which controls light emission at any place, so that a variety of lighting is realized by the lighting unit.

An elecroluminescence (EL) element emits light from its both surfaces. The EL element is formed by printing front electrode layer, luminescent layer made of high dielectric resin with luminous powder dispersed therein, and rear electrode layer made of light-transmittable resin with conductive powder dispersed therein on at least one of surfaces of insulating film.
