ABSTRACT:
An onboard connector is mounted on a circuit board. The onboard connector includes a plurality of terminals, each of which having a first electrical contact portion formed at one end portion thereof so as to be electrically connected to a mating connector and a second electrical contact portion formed at the other end portion thereof so as to be press-fitted into the corresponding through-hole land to electrically contact an inner peripheral surface of the through-hole land, the second electrical contact portion being plated, and a connector housing including a plurality of terminal receiving chambers which are open to a lower face of the connector housing. The terminals are received in the connector housing so that the second electrical contact portions project from the lower surface of the connector housing through openings of the respective terminal receiving chambers. An opening peripheral surface of each terminal receiving chamber which defines the opening forms a plating shaving-receiving portion for receiving plating shavings which are shaved from the plating on the second electrical contact portion by the through-hole land when the second electrical contact portion is press-fitted into the through-hole land.
