Abstract
A display apparatus includes a display panel, a printed circuit board defining an upper surface, a lower surface opposite the upper surface, and a through-hole, a plurality of light sources mounted on the upper surface of the printed circuit board and configured to emit light to the display panel, and a connector inserted into the through-hole on the upper surface of the printed circuit board. The connector includes a connector body inserted into the through-hole, and a plurality of connector terminals disposed in proximity to the upper surface of the printed circuit board. The connector terminals are configured to electrically connect the connector body to a portion of the printed circuit board, and may in certain embodiments connect a first portion of the printed circuit board on one side of the connector body to a second portion of the printed circuit board on an opposite of the connector body.
