ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for electrically connecting an exterior mating connector to a circuit board, mainly comprises an insulative housing, a shell means and a plurality of contacts. The insulative housing includes a plurality of walls wherein the top wall and the opposing lateral walls thereof each form a first retention. The shell means includes a plurality of surfaces wherein the top surface and the opposing lateral surfaces each form a second retention for being retained with said first retentions of the housing. Accordingly, the retentive effect between the shell means and the housing is enhanced. Additionally, the shell means further includes a pair of grounding portions each consisting of a connecting section, an engaging section and a protrusion for providing a grounding function wherein the protrusion enlarges a solder contact area with a soldering paste pre-coated on a surface of the circuit board for further enhancing the retention between the shell means and the circuit board.
