In the conventional memory cards mentioned above, the metal panel is usually protected with an insulating material to print the design.
The outer peripheral edge of the metal panel is formed by pressing, etc., so the metal is exposed. For this reason, static electricity accumulated in the human body is likely to be discharged, and static electricity is likely to enter between the outer periphery of the metal panel and the insulating frame made of plastic, etc., if there is a wiring conductor or ground conductor on a printed circuit board nearby. This may cause the data stored on the memory card to be destroyed or the memory IC itself to be destroyed.

This creates a gap between the battery holder for removing the battery and the insulating frame of the memory card. In this case, it is necessary to design the battery so that electrostatic discharge does not occur, but electrostatic discharge is likely to occur through this gap. This result leads to data or IC destruction as described above.
