An electrical connector comprising an end portion (12) of a flat circuit device (11) which forms a connectively engaging protrusion (18) on which a plurality of contacting terminals (17a) are arranged and a supporting board portion (19) for supporting the connectively engaging protrusion (18), and first and second conductive shells (13, 14;71, 72) having respectively first and second plate portions (30,40;75,85) opposite to each other with the supporting board portion (19) between, wherein the first conductive shell (13,71) is attached to the supporting board portion (19) with the first plate portion (30;75) thereof covering directly a first surface of the supporting board portion (19) and the second conductive shell (14;72) is attached also to the supporting board portion (19) with the second plate portion (40;85) thereof covering directly a second surface opposite to the first surface of the supporting board portion (19), so that the first and second conductive shells (13,14;71,72) are operative to hold the connectively engaging protrusion (18) supported with the supporting board portion (19) for causing the same to engage with a mating electrical connector (60). |
