Abstract
Electrical connector grounding structure includes electrically insulative housing having accommodation hole located on base thereof and tongue plate forwardly extended from base, conducting terminal sets positioned in electrically insulative housing and including one or more than one grounding terminal, one or more than one power terminal and plurality of signal terminals, conducting member mounted in accommodation hole and having first contact portion located at top and second contact portion downwardly extended from first contact portion and kept in contact with grounding terminal, and shielding shell surrounding electrically insulative housing and kept in contact with first contact portion. Grounding terminal, conducting member and shielding shell form common ground loop to guide electromagnetic interferences and noises generated around electrical connector to circuit board for grounding release, making overall signal transmission quality more stable and reliable and achieving the effect of improving overall signal transmission stability.
