Abstract:
A connector to be surface-mounted on a circuit board having an electrical circuit and used to attachably connect an integrated circuit or another connector provided with a plurality of pins extending downward to the circuit board comprising:a case made of an insulating material; a through-hole penetrating said case vertically and into which said pin is inserted; a terminal having a contact section provided in said through-hole to be in contact with said pin, a connecting section facing said electrical circuit and a body section joining said contact section and said connecting section; and a thermally fusible conductive material existing between said connecting section and said electrical circuit; wherein said connecting section extends substantially in parallel with said circuit board and is provided with an internal passage connecting upper and lower sides of said connecting section, and said thermally fusible conductive material is attached to said connecting section in a manner of extending both upward and downward through said internal passage in a state in which said thermally fusible conductive material is not heated and has not been fused to said circuit board, and wherein a longitudinal axis of the thermally fusible conductive material is substantially perpendicular to a plane of said circuit board.
