Abstract
A metal terminal is connectable to terminal electrodes of chip components arranged side by side. The metal terminal includes units corresponding to each chip. Each unit includes an electrode facing portion, a pair of upper and lower holding portions, a mount portion, and protrusions. The electrode facing portion faces the electrode of the chip. The pair of upper and lower holding portions holds the chip. The mount portion is located below the lower holding portion of the electrode facing portion. The protrusions protrude from the electrode facing portion toward the electrode. The protrusions in each unit are arranged substantially line-symmetrically to a virtual center line passing through a middle point between the upper and lower holding portions.
