Abstract
An electrical connector assembly (100) includes an insulative housing (1) with a plurality of terminal passages (12), a plurality of contacts (2) received in the corresponding terminal passages and a PCB (3) electrically connected with the contacts. The PCB has a terminal soldering area (31) and a wire soldering area (32), the terminal soldering area defines a plurality of first conductive pads (311) on a top surface and a bottom surface of the PCB, the first conductive pads are electrically connected with corresponding contacts. The wire soldering area defines a plurality of second conductive pads (321) on the top surface and the bottom surface of the PCB, the second conductive pads are electrically connected with corresponding wires, and the first conductive pads are electrically connected with the second conductive pads, the number of the first conductive pads located on the top surface is different from the second conductive pads on the top surface.
