Connector for printed wiring board

摘要

A connector includes a connector body having an insertion space for receiving its counterpart connector. The connector body includes a synthetic-resin housing for retaining contacts, and a metallic shell. A part of the insertion space is defined by an upper plate of the shell. The upper plate of the shell has extensions extended therefrom along corresponding side walls of the housing. The extensions include legs soldered to a conductive portion on a printed wiring board surface. The legs are outwardly extended and confined in an outline of the connector body as viewed in plan.
