Abstract: A compact, reliable electrical connector. The connector may include terminals held by a housing, which may be formed as a subassembly. The subassembly may be disposed in a shell. The terminals may have mating ends accessible through an opening of the shell and mounting ends opposite the mating ends. The shell may include a wall having a mounting face configured to face a circuit board that the connector should be mounted to, and a member integrated with the wall having the mounting face. The member may position the connector on the circuit board. The member may also electrically couple the shell to ground structures in the circuit board. Such a configuration reduces the risk of misaligning the connector with the circuit board due to, for example, relative movements between a positioning member of the connector and the other components of the connector.

Abstract: Electrical connectors with improved water resistance. A connector may have an outer shell and an inner shell disposed in the outer shell. The inner shell may extend beyond the outer shell in a mating direction. A portion of the inner shell that extends beyond the outer shell in the mating direction may have a surface roughness higher than portions of the inner shell such that a seal can be securely attached to the rough portion of the inner shell. The seal can be made of an adhesive shaped and cured when disposed on the rough portion. The seal can be spaced from the outer shell such that the seal can abut a mating component when the connector is pressed, in the mating direction, against the mating component, blocking ingress of environmental contaminants. The seal may also block any path between the mating ends of the inner and outer shells.
