First Claim
Patent Images
1. A mobile unit with a fingerprint sensor, comprising:
- a circuit board on which a plurality of circuit components are mounted, wherein one of the circuit components processes an output signal output from the fingerprint sensor;
a key case on which a plurality of key switches used as operation keys of the mobile unit are arranged, the key case being fixed to the circuit board;
a sensor-specific board that is provided separately from the circuit board and that is detachably attached to the key case, the fingerprint sensor being mounted on the sensor-specific board adjacent to the operation keys; and
a case that exposes both the key switches arranged on the key case and the fingerprint sensor mounted on the sensor-specific board in a same direction.
