ABSTRACT:
There is provided an asymmetric connector including (a) a plurality of L-shaped terminals having first and second ends, and (b) a housing block in which the L-shaped terminals are arranged in a row, the housing block having a side wall formed with an opening in facing relation to the first ends of the L-shaped terminals, and a flat bottom through which the second ends of the L-shaped terminals project, the housing block being formed at the flat bottom thereof with at least one hole, and further being formed at an upper surface thereof with a recess into which a pushing jig is to be inserted for downwardly pushing the asymmetric connector. The above-mentioned asymmetric connector ensures that the asymmetric connector is accurately positioned relative to a printed wiring board to which the asymmetric board is to be mounted, and that the asymmetric connector is uniformly inserted into a printed wiring board, resulting in that it is possible to prevent buckling of terminals, floating of a housing block, and oblique insertion of terminals into a printed wiring board.
