BOARD-TO-BOARD CONNECTOR

摘要

A thin board-to-board connector with high density in which there is no connection between three-dimensional complex metal springs. The board-to-board connector (1) comprises a connector (4) having a bump (43) for electrical connection having an umbrella shape on a board (41) and connected to a circuit board (2) electrically connected to the bump (43) and a connector (5) having an elastic electrically conductive section (54) having a through hole (55) made in a conductive pattern (53) on an elastic insulating board (51) and connected to a circuit board (3) electrically connected to the elastic conductive section (54). When a bump (43) is inserted into the through hole (55), the elastic conductive section (54) is electrically connected to the bump (43), and the side surface of the through hole (55) is pressed against to the bump (43) and elastically deformed and dented. Consequently, the bump (43) is press-fit into the through hole (55). With this, the bump (43) can be inserted into the elastic conductive section (54) and engaged with it, and thereby electrical and mechanical connection between circuit boards can be simultaneously achieved in a two-dimensional manner, realizing a low-height connector.
