The first and the second heat dissipation sheets include a heat conductive layer, a heat radiation layer adjacent to a first surface of the heat conductive layer, and a base adjacent to a second surface of the heat conductive layer. The base contains a heat conductive silicone resin having hardness of 40 or less in ASKER C.
