Terminal legs of connectors

摘要

A connector with a plurality of slots for incorporating terminals. The rear legs of the terminals are secured onto the circuit board. The legs of the terminals are molded as having a contact column and a contact plate, with the contact plate at the lateral side of the contact column. The contact column goes through the through contact of the circuit board and is soldered to the circuit board. The contact plate is attached to the surface contact of the circuit board and secured by SMD. In case SMD is not able to secure the contact plate to the circuit board, soldering can be used instead.
