Abstract
Based on a result of repeated analysis of stress caused by application of an external impact in a circuit board, which is rectangular or substantially rectangular in plan view and includes mounting electrodes, included in an electronic component, the mounting electrodes near four corners of the circuit board, of the mounting electrodes provided on a back surface of the circuit board included in the electronic component, are provided at positions shifted from diagonal lines of the back surface. Hence, the stress produced near the four corners of the circuit board is reduced, and this can effectively prevent a fracture, a chip, and a crack from being caused in the circuit board.
