Abstract
A PCB terminal is provided with a rod-like base material and a plating layer covering a predetermined region of the base material. A constituent material of the base material is a copper alloy containing 20% by mass or more of zinc. The plating layer includes a first coating portion and a second coating portion. The first coating portion includes an entire peripheral layer entirely covering a region on side of a first end part, out of both end parts of the base material, in a circumferential direction of the base material. The second coating portion partially covers a region on side of a second end part, out of the both end parts of the base material, in the circumferential direction of the base material. The entire peripheral layer includes a tin-based layer and a barrier layer.
