ABSTRACT:
A printed circuit board connector has: an insulating housing (2); SMT type contacts (7, 11) disposed in the insulating housing and spaced apart from each other; and each contact having a lead (11) which extends to a junction surface (2a) of the housing so as to be soldered to a conductive pattern (16) formed on a printed circuit board (15). The lead (11) of each contact is a plating layer (10) formed on the junction surface (2a). The contacts (7) are pin contacts held in place by the insulating housing (2) so as to be electrically connected to the plating layer (10) formed as the leads. The contacts' leads are included in a common plane so that the reliability of electric connection and the durability of connector are improved, and the connector is rendered thinner and more compact to reduce an area required to mount it.
