Abstract
A multi-direction connectable electronic module includes a circuit board, including a top surface, a bottom surface, and at least one side; and a plurality of connectors connected to the circuit board, each including a lateral magnetic connector, a shell, a longitudinal inter-locking part, and a lateral inter-locking part. The lateral inter-locking part is configured to connect with a first electronic building block along the lateral direction. The longitudinal inter-locking part is configured to stack with a second electronic building block along the longitudinal direction. The lateral magnetic connector is configured to magnetically connect with the first electronic building block. A plurality of through holes are formed on the shell. A lateral pin connector disposed on the at least one side of the circuit board includes a plurality of pins located at positions corresponding to the plurality of through holes, and is configured to electrically connect the first electronic building block.
