Abstract

A circuit assembly includes a circuit board, a heat dissipation member on which the circuit board is placed and that is configured to release heat of the circuit board, an insulating layer that is formed on a surface on the circuit board side of the heat dissipation member, a bonding portion made of a bonding agent that is arranged in a predetermined region between the circuit board and the heat dissipation member, and an adhesive portion that is arranged in a region other than the predetermined region between the circuit board and the heat dissipation member and that is made of an adhesive with which the circuit board and the heat dissipation member are bonded to each other with lower bonding force than with the bonding agent.

Claims

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a casing;

a storage medium housed in the casing;

a control unit having a detection unit and an erasing unit, the detection unit configured to detect opening of the casing;

the erasing unit configured to erase information stored in the storage medium in a case; and

a power source including an external power source and a photoelectric conversion unit that converts light into electric power, both configured to supply power to the detection unit and the erasing unit,

wherein the photoelectric conversion unit is incorporated in the casing, wherein the control unit is configured to actuate the erasing unit to erase information stored in the storage medium only when power is supplied by the photoelectric conversion unit.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1,

wherein the detection unit is configured to detect opening of the casing, in a case where the photoelectric conversion unit outputs electric power.

3. The information processing apparatus according claim 2,

wherein the casing has an opening part configured to be opened and closed,

the light receiving surface is located on the opening part side of the casing.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the power source has a plurality of the photoelectric conversion units.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the power source has a plurality of the photoelectric conversion units.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, comprising:

a communication unit configured to communicate with an external device; and

a reception unit configured to accept, from the external device via the communication unit, an instruction to stop erasure of the information, wherein the erasing unit is configured to stop erasure of the information, in a case where the reception unit accepts the instruction.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, comprising:

an authentication unit configured to authenticate an external device, wherein a reception unit is configured to accept the instruction by the external device, in a case where the authentication unit has authenticated the external device.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, comprising:

a communication unit configured to communicate with an external device; and

a reception unit configured to accept, from the external device via the communication unit, an instruction to stop erasure of the information,

wherein the erasing unit is configured to stop erasure of the information, in a case where the reception unit accepts the instruction.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8, comprising:

an authentication unit configured to authenticate the external device, wherein the reception unit is configured to accept the instruction by the external device, in a case where the authentication unit has authenticated the external device.
