Abstract:
A connector configured to accommodate a printed-circuit board having electrically conductive metal strips on first and second opposite faces, the connector comprising:a body configured to be mounted on the board, the body comprising a housing; a microphone module accommodated at least in part in the housing, the microphone module having a microphone; at least one first electrically conductive element having an area for electrical connection with a corresponding electrically conductive element of a complementary connector, and an area for contact with a metal strip borne by the first face of the board; and at least one second electrically conductive element having an area for electrical connection with the microphone, and an area for contact with a metal strip on the board, wherein the body has a space for accommodating the board, the space being defined between the electrical connection areas of the at least one first electrically conductive element and the at least one second electrically conductive element, so that the contact area of the at least one second electrically conductive element is in mechanical contact with a metal strip borne by the second face of the board, and wherein the microphone module is arranged, with respect to the space for accommodating the board, on a same side as the contact area of the at least one second electrically conductive element.
