  • Publication number: 20180151967
    Abstract: A board to board connector assembly includes a male board connector, a female board connector, and an engagement structure for effectively engaging the male board connector with the female board connector. This assures effective engagement between the female and male board connectors even in the case of insufficient contact area therebetween, such that height of engagement between the female and male board connectors can be reduced desirably, making the board to board connector assembly well applicable to various miniaturized electronic devices. Moreover, the board to board connector assembly of the invention includes a plurality of conductors for simultaneously transmitting various signals, such that the number of connectors used in the electronic devices can be reduced. This also allows the board to board connector assembly to be readily applied to various miniaturized electronic devices.
