The present invention relates to a fuel cell comprising a power generator (203) incorporated in a housing (201) having air intake ports (204), an electrical terminal (206) connected to a printed-wiring board (210), and connectors (205, 209b and 208b) and a fuel passage (209a) for supplying fuel. The terminals (206) are formed in such configurations as to be insertion-mounted on the printed-wiring board (210) or to be surface mounted on the printed-wiring board (210). The fuel cell is directly mounted on the printed-wiring board. Thus, a cell housing part or a fixing mechanism, a connector, etc. do not need to be provided on an electric device on which the fuel cell is mounted and the structure of the device itself is simplified and miniaturized.
