ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an electrical connector for electrically connecting a circuit board. The electrical connector includes an insulative housing which has terminal-receiving holes, conductive terminals accommodated in the terminal-receiving holes, and a solder partially projected from a bottom of the insulative housing. Furthermore, each conductive terminal has conductive portion, and the solder is located under the conductive portion. When the electrical connector is soldered to the circuit board, the solder is melted, the conductive terminals and the insulative housing move downward, and part of the conductive portion can be inserted into the solder to form an electrical connection between the circuit board and the conductive terminals. Comparing with the prior art, the electrical connector of the invention can position the solder to contact with the conductive terminals, increase the co-planarity of the solder, and further raising the quality of the electrical connection.
