The clip 1 is fixed in two mounting holes at both ends of the connector 2 in the longitudinal direction (direction perpendicular to the paper surface of FIG. 4), whereby two clips 1 are used in the four mounting holes. Thus, the connector 2 can be reliably fixed to the printed circuit board 2. Soldering is performed with the connector 2 fixed to the printed circuit board 3 by the clip 1. Since the clip 1 is formed of a material that can withstand soldering, the fixing is not impaired.
