ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH IMPROVED TERMINALS

摘要

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing defining a plurality of terminal slots. A plurality of conductive terminals are retained in the insulative housing and arranged in a row, each terminal includes a retaining portion received in the terminal slot, a contacting portion extending forwardly from a front portion of the retaining portion, a soldering portion extending outside of the insulative housing from the retaining portion and a resilient contacting arm extending forwardly from a rear portion of the retaining portion. A shield shell is covering the insulative housing and defines a notch at a rear portion thereof for receiving the contacting arm therein and at least a contacting pad disposed in the notch. The plurality of conductive terminals include a plurality of grounding terminals and signal terminals, and the at least one contacting pad contacts with contacting arm of a grounding terminal.
