The present invention relates to a card edge connector that is a female connector provided on a printed wiring board or the like, and more particularly to a card edge connector having a crosstalk reducing structure.
Conventionally, for example, as shown in Patent Document 1, it is well known to electrically connect printed wiring boards by providing a plug connector as a male connector on one side and a card edge connector as a female connector on the other side. It has been.

JP 2007-149643 A
However, in recent years, the speed of signal transmission has increased, and crosstalk between adjacent signals has become more problematic. In particular, in high-speed transmission, it is necessary to suppress a slight amount of crosstalk up to a higher frequency region.
As described above, a connector for transmitting a differential signal generally has a structure in which grounding contacts are arranged on both sides of two signal line contacts, as in the GSSG arrangement. When two sets of signal line contacts are adjacent to each other, the two signal line contacts are separated only by one common grounding contact as in the GSSGSGSSS arrangement. It has been.
The ground lines wired on the printed wiring board are interconnected by a grounding common plane or the like inside the printed wiring board, and are configured to have the same potential. However, when each of the plurality of contacts inside the connector is connected to the printed wiring board only at both ends, the grounding contact is arranged at a distance from the grounding common plane provided inside the printed wiring board. It will be. Accordingly, each ground contact has a different potential, and the potential of each ground contact has a potential different from the potential of the ground line on the printed wiring board. As a result, each ground contact has a reduced shielding effect against a high-frequency signal having a frequency component of several GHz. As a result, there is a possibility that the problem that the crosstalk between the adjacent signal line contacts or the signal line contacts one distance away increases increases.
In view of such problems, the object of the present invention is to provide a high-speed differential signal in which the potential between the ground contacts adjacent to the signal line contact is the same, and crosstalk between adjacent signal line contacts is reduced. It is to provide a card edge connector as a connector.
To achieve the above object, a card edge connector according to the present invention is a card edge connector as a female connector in which a plurality of signal line contacts and a plurality of ground contacts are arranged in parallel to each other in at least one row. The signal line contact and the ground contact are arranged so that two signal line contacts through which a high-speed signal reciprocates are sandwiched between two ground contacts, and the plurality of ground contacts arranged in one row are all A plurality of common contacts are prepared, and each common contact is configured to electrically connect two ground contacts sandwiching the two signal line contacts. It is characterized by that.
Further, the common contact is configured to be able to electrically connect a plurality of grounding contacts at the same time, and may further include a holder for holding the common contact .
In the present invention, by electrically connecting all the ground contacts with the common contacts in this way, all the ground contacts that connect the printed wiring boards can be held at the same potential. As a result, it is possible to reduce the crosstalk between signals passing through the signal line contacts arranged with the grounding contact sandwiched between them with a shielding effect superior to that of the conventional device, and further through the signal line contacts. Generation of noise due to signals can also be suppressed.
In addition, the common contact has a simple structure and is easy to assemble, so that a plurality of grounding contacts can be securely connected and electrically connected, and materials can be wasted during manufacture. Absent.

The first signal line contacts 20 are a pair of two, and one adjacent to the left side is formed with a slit 12A that is to receive the ground contact 30 at the right end (left end in FIG. 3). Each is inserted into one slit 12B. The next set is again inserted into the two slits 12B adjacent to the left side, leaving one slit 12A in which the first ground contact 30 is to be accommodated. Thereafter, by repeating this, all the first signal line contacts 20 are inserted into the corresponding slits 12B , whereby the installation of the first signal line contacts 20 on the main body 11 of the card edge connector 10 is completed. The first slit 12 is formed in the main body 11 so that the first ground contact 30 is accommodated in the slit 12A at the left end.
Next, as shown in FIG. 4, the card is inserted through a fitting space formed by a pair of first and second fitting recesses 18a and 18b in which a plurality of common contacts 40 are provided in a predetermined slit 12A. It is installed in the main body 11 of the edge connector 10. The first and second leg portions 42 and 43 of each common contact 40 are inserted into the fitting space in the arrangement shown in FIG. 6, whereby the plurality of common contacts 40 are held by the main body 11. In this state, the plurality of first ground contacts 30 are inserted into the corresponding first slits 12 </ b> A and fixed to the main body 11 of the card edge connector 10. At the same time, the fixing portions 33 of the first ground contacts 30 are sandwiched between the first and second leg portions 42 and 42 of the common contact 40.
In this way, as shown in FIG. 5, the first signal line contact 20 and the first ground contact 30 are accommodated in the corresponding first slits 12A and 12B in a GSSG arrangement.

Will be understood.
Next, the first signal line contact 120 according to this embodiment having a structure different from that of the first embodiment will be described. Each of the plurality of first signal line contacts 120 in this embodiment is formed by punching a conductive metal thin plate so as to form an approximately S shape. From the top, as shown in FIG. A deformation part 122, a fixing part 123 and a terminal part 124 are provided.
In this embodiment, the structure of the fixing portion 123 is different from that of the first signal line contact 20 in the first embodiment, and other configurations are substantially the same as those in the first embodiment. The fixing portion 123 in this embodiment does not vertically extend from the elastic deformation portion 22 to the terminal portion 24 as in the first embodiment. As FIG. 10 shows, the fixing | fixed part 123 of a present Example protrudes in the substantially C shape toward the front. Specifically, the fixing portion 123 of the present embodiment includes a first vertical portion 123a, a first horizontal press-fit portion 123b, a vertical press-fit portion 123c, a second horizontal press-fit portion 123d, and a second vertical portion 123e following the terminal portion 124.

The two contact protrusions 135 and 136 are formed so as to contact the common contact 140 and protrude rearward from the rear end surface of the vertical press-fitting portion 133c. The reason why the distance L4 is set slightly smaller than the first signal line contact 120 is to allow the first ground contact 130 to contact the common contact 140.
Each of the first ground contacts 130 is substantially the same in structure as the first signal line contact 20 except for the contact protrusions 135 and 136, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

Next, like the second ground contact 160, the plurality of second signal line contacts 150 (see FIG. 14) are each formed by punching from a conductive thin metal plate in a generally S-shape. Each of the second signal line contacts 150 has substantially the same structure as that of the second ground contact 160, and a description thereof will be omitted. The length from the contact portion to the fixed portion of the second signal line contact 150 may be the same as that of the second ground contact 160, or may be set slightly longer or shorter than that.
Next, the common contact 140 and the holder 145 constituting the card edge connector 10 according to the present embodiment, which is a feature of the present invention, will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, the common contact 140 is a member that collectively connects the plurality of first ground contacts 130 installed in the card edge connector 110 in order to match the potentials. In addition, the holder 145 in the present embodiment is a member for holding the common contact 140 and making electrical contact with the first ground contact 130.
By providing such a common contact 140, similarly to the first embodiment, also in this embodiment, it is possible to prevent the shield effect from being lowered by the grounding conductor in the two connector regions of the plug connector and the card edge connector. It becomes possible. This reduces crosstalk between the signal lines and prevents noise from being radiated.
The common contact 140 in this embodiment is formed by punching from a conductive metal thin plate and then bending. The common contact 140 according to the present embodiment includes a pair of first and second legs 142 and 143 that can come into contact with an elongated main body 141 extending in the left-right direction and the first ground contact 130. The first leg 142 extends upward from the main body 141 substantially vertically, is bent in a substantially L shape, extends substantially horizontally toward the rear, and is curved so as to be slightly convex upward. It is preferable. The second leg 143 extends downward substantially vertically from the main body 141 so as to be paired with the first leg 142, is bent into a generally L shape, extends substantially horizontally toward the rear, and It is preferable that the film is curved slightly convex downward. As shown in FIG. 12, a plurality of sets of first and second legs 142 and 143 forming a pair are arranged at an interval S 11 and arranged in parallel with each other. Yes. In the present embodiment, two common contacts 140 are shown, but they may be combined into one or a plurality.

Since the common contact 140 is formed in this way, when assembled, the vertical portions of the first and second legs 142 and 143 are fixed to the first ground contact 130 as shown in FIG. The rear end surface of the vertical press-fitting portion 133c of the portion 133 can be contacted. Similarly, the horizontal portion of the first leg 142 may contact the lower end surface of the first horizontal press-fit portion 133b, and the horizontal portion of the second leg 143 may contact the upper end surface of the second horizontal press-fit portion 133d. Thereby, the common contact 140 electrically connects the plurality of first ground contacts 130, and as a result, the potentials of the plurality of first ground contacts 130 can be made the same.
Next, the holder 145 for holding the common contact 140 is formed from an electrically insulating synthetic resin into a rectangular parallelepiped elongated in the left-right direction. As shown in FIG. 12, the holder 145 has a rectangular shape having a height (vertical length) H 21 and a depth (length in the front-rear direction) T 21 in a vertical cross section.
In order to accommodate the elongated main body 141 of the common contact 140, the holder 145 is formed with an elongated groove 146 that opens rearward and extends in the left-right direction on the rear surface of the holder 145.

Similarly, in order to receive the second leg portion 143 of the common contact 140, it extends downward from the elongated groove 146 in a pair with the first receiving groove 147, and further faces backward on the lower surface of the holder 145. A second receiving groove 148 extending in the direction is formed. Since the holder 145 has such a configuration, the height H 21 and the depth T 21 of the holder 145 are approximately equal to the height H 11 and the depth T 11 of the common contact 140, respectively (H 21 ≈H 11 , T 21 ≒ T 11) it is understood. Furthermore, the height of the holder 145 is substantially equal to the height L 4 of the holder accommodating recess 127 of the first signal line contact 120. Of course, the length of the holder 145 in the left-right direction is substantially equal to the length of the common contact 140 in the left-right direction.
