1. A circuit assembly comprising:
a plurality of electronic components;
a plurality of control terminals electrically connected respectively to the plurality of electronic components; and
a holding member that has insulating properties and holds the plurality of control terminals,
wherein the control terminals serve as insert articles that form one piece with the holding member that is made of a resin,
each of the control terminals includes, in a partial portion of the control terminal:
an exposed face exposed from the holding member;
a contact face that is located opposite to the exposed face and is in contact with the holding member;
a first side face located between the exposed face and the contact face; and
a second side face located between the exposed face and the contact face, and
a first space is formed lateral to the first side face, and a second space is formed lateral to the second side face; and
wherein the holding member includes:
a thick portion that is in contact with the contact face;
a first thin-film portion that is made of a resin and covers the first side face; and a second thin-film portion that is made of a resin and covers the second side face, and wherein a side face of the first thin-film portion is exposed in the first space, and a side face of the second thin-film portion is exposed in the second space.
