ELECTRIC WIRE-SUBSTRATE CONNECTOR

摘要

A wire-to-board connector (1) includes a plug (3) which is attached to a wire (2), and a receptacle (6) which is mounted on a connector mounting surface (5) of a board (4). The plug (3) and the receptacle (6) are each formed of metal, and the plug (3) is mated with the receptacle (6) to thereby connect the wire (2) to the board (4). The wire-to-board connector (1) has the following structure. A wire direction corresponding to a longitudinal direction of the wire (2) in the vicinity of the plug (3) when the plug (3) is mated with the receptacle (6) is parallel to the connector mounting surface (5) of the board (4). A mating direction (P) in which the plug (3) is mated with the receptacle (6) is a direction approaching the connector mounting surface (5) of the board (4).
