Abstract:
An electronic unit includes an electrolytic capacitor, a covering resin layer, and electronic components. The electrolytic capacitor is on an upper surface of an insulating substrate. The covering resin layer covers the upper surface of the insulating substrate and the electronic components. Part of the covering resin layer serves as an electrolytic capacitor covering portion. The electrolytic capacitor covering portion includes an outer peripheral covering portion that covers an outer peripheral surface of the electrolytic capacitor and a top covering portion that covers a top portion of the electrolytic capacitor. A thin wall groove is formed in the top covering portion. The outer peripheral covering portion extends upward beyond the top covering portion by a height h. The top covering portion easily breaks at the thin wall groove so that an explosion-proof valve easily operates. A region corresponding to the height h creates an operating space of the explosion-proof valve.
