Abstract
Accordingly, the board-to-board connector of the Present Disclosure comprises a first connector mounted on a surface of a first board and a second connector mounted on a surface of a second board and mating with the first connector. The first connector includes a flat-shaped main body part, a first conductive body placed on the mating surface of the main body part, and a plurality of male terminals protruding from the surface of the first conductive body. The second connector is a flat-shaped material formed from flat-shaped metal, and includes a plurality of female terminals flexibly retaining the male terminals. Positioning of the male and female terminals is accomplished by the male terminals being retained by the female terminals.
