Abstract
In a PC card incorporating a printed board, an electronic component having a greater height can be mounted on the printed board without reducing the strength of a cover. The PC card includes a cover member () and a main cover () at least one of which is formed with at least one opening () for prevention of interference with an electronic component (), and a plate member () closing the opening from the outside of the cover member or the main cover. An outer surface of the plate member () is located at substantially the same level as an outer surface of the cover member () or the main cover (), and the plate member () has a smaller thickness than the cover member and the main cover. This arrangement increases the strength of the cover.
