ABSTRACT:
A connector for a printed circuit board, having a terminal guide for guiding lead terminals, improved to suppress cracking or separation caused by a temperature change in the regions where the lead terminals are soldered to the printed circuit board. The connector has a housing having side walls on both longitudinal ends thereof, the side walls being provided with engaging grooves. The housing mounts a plurality of lead terminals which are led therefrom. The connector also has a terminal guide which is a substantially tabular member made from an insulating material provided on both longitudinal ends thereof with projections for engagement with the engaging grooves of the housing. The terminal guide has a plurality of lead terminal insertion holes formed at the same pitch as the lead terminals so as to receive these lead terminals. At least one stress relieving portion in the form of a slit or an elongated slot or aperture is formed in the terminal guide so as to localize any thermal expansion or contraction of the terminal guide occurring in the longitudinal direction thereof.
