Abstract:
Electrical connectors are described. More particularly, electrical connectors including a plurality of contacts are described. Both connector plugs and sockets are described. Electrical connectors that are suitable for mounting on a printed circuit board and electrical connectors that include a printed circuit board are described.

Claim (Index 19):
An elongated electrical connector for mating with a mating connector along a mating direction, the connector comprising:\n a circuit board comprising: a plurality of spaced apart first contact pads disposed in a first region near a front edge of the circuit board; a plurality of spaced apart second contact pads disposed in a second region near the front edge of the circuit board, the first and second regions defining a third region therebetween near the front edge of the circuit board; the first, second and third regions forming a bottom mating tongue of the connector, each first and second contact pad configured to make contact with a corresponding contact of a mating connector; a plurality of spaced apart third contact pads disposed in a fourth region between the first and second regions and behind the third region; an elongated base extending along a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the mating direction attached to the circuit board, such that the first and second pluralities of contact pads are on a front side of the elongated base and the third plurality of contact pads is on a rear side of the elongated base; a top mating tongue extending forwardly along the mating direction from the elongated base between the first and second end walls, the top mating tongue being disposed in the third region between the first and second regions; and a plurality of spaced apart contacts, each contact comprising: a front member extending along the mating direction and disposed in a corresponding passageway formed on a top surface of the top mating tongue for making contact with a corresponding contact of a mating connector; and a rear member extending rearwardly from the elongated base and making contact with a corresponding third contact pad.
