Abstract
The present disclosure provides an electrical connector. The electrical connector comprises an insulative housing and a plurality of terminals disposed in the insulative housing. The insulative housing comprises a top face, a bottom face opposite to the top face, and a plurality of side faces extending between the top face and the bottom face. A corner portion between at least two adjacent side faces of the side faces is formed as a chamfered surface. Such a configuration reduces the dimension of the electrical connector, enables a more compact arrangement of components on the electronic system, and enables the dimension of the electronic system to be reduced, such that the entire assembly, including the electrical connector and the electronic system, can be manufactured at a lower cost and can be more compact and more lightweight.
