CONNECTEUR ELECTRIQUE A IMPEDANCE ADAPTEE POUR CARTE A CIRCUITS IMPRIMES

摘要

A matched impedance printed circuit board connector comprising a housing mounted on a mounting board having a ground plane and signal traces separated by an insulator. A grounding bus extends lengthwise in the housing below the printed circuit board receiving slot therein. Signal contacts in the housing are mounted in plated through holes in the mounting board which are connected to the signal traces. The grounding bus has mounting portions which are mounted in other plated through holes in the board which are joined to the ground plane. Ground contacts are also provided in the housing which are mounted in additional plated through holes which are also joined to the ground plane so that the ground contacts and grounding bus are electrically interconnected. Preferably two such ground contacts are positioned on opposite sides of the signal contacts.
