Abstract

A stacked electrical connector includes a first mating interface. The first mating interface comprises a first receiving space (101) with a first tongue (102). The first tongue (102) has a pair of upper and lower face (1021, 1022). A plurality of first contacts (20) are retained in the first mating interface. The first contacts (20) include a plurality of first elastic contacts (201) and a plurality of first flat contact (202). Each first elastic contact (201) has a securing portion (2011) fixed in the first mating interface (101), an elastic contact portion (2010) extending to the first tongue (102) and a soldering portion (2012). Each first flat contact (202) has a retention portion (2024, 2028) retained in the first mating interface (101), a flat contact portion (2022, 2026) extending to the first tongue (102) and a tail portion (2025, 2029). The flat contact portions (2022, 2026) and the elastic contact portions (2010) are located at a same side of the upper face (1021), and are arranged in two rows along a length direction of the first tongue (102). A second mating interface is stacked with the first mating interface along a thickness direction of the first tongue (102). A plu…
