Abstract: There is disclosed a surface mount, circular DIN connector (10) with a housing (12) having a mating face (22) and a terminal receiving face (24). Three rows of terminal receiving cavities (1 to 8) open into the mating face (22) and the terminal receiving face (24). A set of electrical terminals (30) each has a mating portion (32) in a respective one of the cavities (1 to 8), a solder tail (36) extending substantially normally of the mating portion (32), and a connecting arm (38) connecting the mating portion (32) to the solder tail (36). The arms (38) are dimensioned relatively to offset the solder tails (36) with respect to the mating portions (32), in interleaved relationship to form a single row of solder tails (36) for soldering to respective contact pads arranged in a single row on a printed circuit board (20).
