Filtered electrical connector assembly.

摘要

A multi-terminal filtered electrical connector assembly (10) includes a housing (26,28) having a plurality of terminal-receiving passageways (30). A plurality of terminals (22) are received in the passageways, with tail portions (22a) of the terminals projecting from the housing. A terminal alignment plate (16), independent of the housing, includes a plurality of through holes (58) for receiving and aligning the tail portions of the terminals. First complementary interengaging latch devices (70,74,76) are provided between the housing and the alignment plate for readily assembling the alignment plate on the housing. A ferrite block (18) is mountable on the alignment plate and includes a plurality of through holes (60) alignable with the holes in the alignment plate for receiving therethrough the tail portions of the terminals. Second complementary interengaging latch devices (62,66) are provided between the alignment plate and the ferrite block for readily assembling the ferrite block on the alignment plate. Therefore, the alignment plate and the ferrite block can be assembled as a subassembly about the tail portions of the terminals, and the subassembly can be readily assembled to the housing. A flexible capacitor filter circuit (20) is mounted on a rear face (34) of the housing and through which the terminals extend.
