The present invention provides a heat dissipating structure with high heat dissipation performance while reducing the electric resistance. A heat dissipating structure includes: a heat sink having a base portion, and a plurality of heat dissipating fins provided upright on a first surface of the base portion; a first heat generating component provided on a side of the first surface of the base portion while being in contact with at least one heat dissipating fin of the plurality of heat dissipating fins; a circuit board joined to a second surface, opposite to the first face, of the base portion while being electrically connected to the first heat generating component; a second heat generating component provided on the circuit board, the second heat generating component generating a smaller amount of heat than the first heat generating component; and a connector electrically connecting the first heat generating component and the second heat generating component. The connector has a first outlet into which a first connecting terminal on a side of the first heat generating component is insertable, and a second outlet into which a second connecting terminal on a side of the second heat generating component is insertable.
