FEMALE CONNECTOR, FEMALE CONNECTOR MOUNTING STRUCTURE, AND METHOD OF MOUNTING FEMALE CONNECTOR TO SUBSTRATE

摘要

A single pole female connector has: a mounting base portion in which is formed a terminal insertion hole into which a male terminal can be inserted; an extending portion extending outwardly from the mounting base portion; and a terminal contacting portion which extends from a peripheral edge of the mounting base portion in a direction substantially orthogonal to a plate portion, and which is formed so as to be able to nip the male terminal. The extending portion is electrically connected by being reflow soldered to a land at a reverse surface of the substrate. It is difficult for cream solder to enter into a male terminal insertion path at an inner side of the female connector.
