Connector, sealed case with connector, and module with connector

摘要

A connector including: a male connector having a generally-box-shaped first housing and a first connection terminal; and a female connector having a generally-box-shaped second housing and a second connection terminal. The second housing has an airway for allowing the second housing inside to communicate with the outside. The first connection terminal has a communicating path for allowing the first housing inside to communicate with the outside. Because the inside of the sealed case and connector can be opened to the atmosphere through the communicating paths, the internal pressure of the sealed case can be brought into a condition close to or agreement with the atmospheric pressure. Even when temperature variations rapidly change the internal pressure of the sealed case, cracking in the sealed case can be avoided because internal pressure changes in the sealed case can be relieved.
