Abstract

The invention is designed to assemble a connector with circuit board(s) with an improved degree of freedom. Directly connectable terminal fittings 12 and housing side terminals 13 are mounted on a housing 11. The housing 11 is mounted on a main circuit board 40, and the directly connectable terminal fittings 12 are inserted into through holes formed in the main circuit board 40 and soldered. An auxiliary circuit board 50 is disposed above the main circuit board 40 with the housing 11 therebetween. Board side terminals 14 mounted on the auxiliary circuit board 50 are connected with housing side terminals 13.
