Electrical connector

摘要

An insulative housing has grooves disposed on an upper surface. The lower surface is closed to protect the electrical connectors from solder flux when soldering the housing to a printed circuit substrate. The enclosed electrical connectors make electrical contact with the corresponding connectors in an insertable plug. The grooves are open along a top surface and allow the enclosed electrical connectors to connect with the corresponding connectors disposed on a bottom surface of the insertable plug. The insulative housing is disposed within a socket that is soldered to a printed circuit substrate. The insertable plug, insulative housing and socket together comprise a miniature connector.
