Abstract
In a mounting structure, a housing is supported while being raised from a printed circuit board by first molten solders provided between the housing and the printed circuit board, the supported housing is positioned such that terminals come to be located in the centers of lands by a self-alignment effect of second molten solders provided between the terminals and the lands and is fastened onto the printed circuit board by screws and the like with the first and second molten solders naturally cooled. The connector mounting structure is inexpensive and has a good durability and enables the miniaturization of a connector and a narrow arrangement of terminals.
