Abstract
Disclosed are electrical connector devices with integrated electronic components, including magnetic devices. The electronic components integrated into the connector are electrically connected to one another and the connector pins by an electrically conductive circuit formed directly on the connector housing. Formation of the electrically conductive circuit directly on the connector housing substantially reduces the number of assembly steps required to manufacture the connector.
