Abstract

An electronic apparatus has a vibration-sensitive constructional unit accommodated in a housing, the housing and the vibration-sensitive constructional unit being coupled by damping apparatus. In order to reduce the vibration clearance of the vibration-sensitive constructional unit the damping apparatus includes at least one spring arrangement having a spring characteristic which is progressive in all three directions in space.
