Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An electrical connector ( 100 ) includes an insulative housing ( 1 ), a number of contact terminals ( 2 ), a metal plate ( 3 ), and a metallic shell ( 4 ) enclosing the insulative housing ( 1 ). The terminals and the metal plate ( 3 ) are retained in the insulative housing ( 1 ). The insulative housing ( 1 ) includes a base portion ( 11 ) and a tongue portion ( 12 ) extending forward from the base portion ( 11 ). The contact terminal includes a contacting portion ( 21 ), a tail ( 22 ), and a connecting portion ( 23 ) connecting the contacting portion ( 21 ) and the tail ( 22 ). The tails ( 22 ) are positioned out of the insulative housing ( 1 ). The metal plate ( 3 ) has a number of positioning end portions ( 33 ). The positioning end portions ( 33 ) are soldered on a printed circuit board for grounding. The electrical connector ( 100 ) has improved electromagnetic interference effect.
