Abstract
An electrical connector (100) includes an insulative housing (1) defining a main body (10) and a tongue plate (11) extending from the main body, and a number of terminals (2) retained in the insulative housing and being arranged in two rows. Each terminal has a contacting portion (201) extending into the tongue plate, a retaining portion (202) retained in the main body, a bending portion (22) extending from the retaining portion, and a tail portion (23) extending from the bending portion and comprising a mounting portion (231) for being mounted on a PCB. The bending portions (22) in each one of the two rows bending oppositely to the other row from the respective retaining portions. A distance between the two rows of the mounting portions (231) is greater than a distance between the two rows of the contacting portions (201). A distance between each two adjacent mounting portions (231) in each row is greater than a distance between the two respective contacting portions (201).
