Electrical connector assembly

摘要

An electrical connector assembly in which conductor pads on a board are used as contacts is described. Signal conductor pads transmitting positive and negative differential signals, are disposed on one side of the board. A ground pad is disposed on the opposite side of the board so that it is positioned at an intermediate point between the positive and negative signal conductor pads, thus forming one set of pads. The signal conductor pads of another adjacent set, are disposed on the same side as the signal pad of the previous set such that their negative differential signals an adjacent. The pad of a third set (not shown in the figures) which is adjacent to the positive signal pad of the second set is a pad that transmits the same positive differential signal. As a result, signal crosstalk can be prevented.
