Electrical connector for a unit having an electronic device mounted thereon

摘要

A connector eliminates any restriction in the arrangement of connecting pins, and makes a unit to be connected compact. A male type connector assembly (20) includes a connector body (21) formed with a cavity portion (21a) for receiving a female type connector assembly (10) therein. A unit (22) mounting an electronic device (22a) thereon is hierarchically connected to the connector body (21). The connector body and unit of the female type connector assembly are connected together through a contact (30). When the male type connector assembly (20) and the female type connector assembly (10) are connected together, the contact (30) is connected to a receptacle contact (11) mounted on the female type connector assembly (10).
