Abstract:
1. A circuit module, comprising: a circuit board including an electric circuit located on a front surface of the circuit board; and a shield case arranged to shield the electric circuit of the circuit board by covering the front surface and a side peripheral surface of the circuit board; wherein the shield case includes: the circuit board is arranged in the frame section at a position spaced apart from a front surface of the mother board; the circuit board has a circuit-side connector at a back surface of the circuit board, the circuit-side connector being connected with a mother-board-side connector provided at the mother board such that the electric circuit of the circuit board is electrically connected with a conductive portion of the mother board; the circuit-side connector is located at a position near one end of the circuit board; the circuit board has a positioning protrusion arranged to position the circuit board with respect to the frame section, the positioning protrusion protruding outward from an end surface of the circuit board at a position near the circuit-side connector; and the frame section has a positioning hole into which the positioning protrusion is fitted when the circuit board is housed in the frame section.
