Abstract
A fastening device for facilitating temporary fastening of an electronic component to a circuit board. The fastening device includes a base embedded in an electronic device and two elastic plates extending from the base. Each elastic plate includes a diagonal portion, which extend diagonally relative to the plane of the circuit board, and a leg, which extends continuously from the diagonal portion. When the legs are inserted through a connecting hole of the circuit board, the resilient force of the elastic plates presses the diagonal portions against the wall of the connecting hole.
