Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a high-speed transmission connector 1 which is most suitable for connecting printed wiring boards, and which reduces impedance, crosstalk, noise and the like and increases the speed.

[0002]

FIG. 2 shows a conventional connector 1 ' used for connecting printed wiring boards to each other. As is clear from the figure, the insulating housing 2 '
Is composed of a terminal storage hole 2a 'and an insulating housing mounting portion 2b' for mounting on a printed wiring board. In the terminal holding hole 2a 'of the insulating housing 2',
The conductive terminal 3 'is inserted and held by press fitting.
The conductive terminal 3 'includes a contact portion 3a' for contacting a terminal of a mating connector (not shown), a terminal exposed portion 3b 'from the insulating housing, and a soldered portion 3c' for a printed wiring board. , A plurality of them are arranged on the left and right. The contact portion 3a 'of each conductive terminal 3' is in spring contact with the terminal of the mating connector and is electrically conductive. Terminal exposed part 3
b 'is partially exposed from the insulating housing 2', is bent in the direction of connection with the printed wiring board, and is aligned by the alignment plate 4 'so as to be equal to the through-hole pitch of the printed wiring board. Further, for the conductive terminals 3 ', terminal soldering portions 3c' are inserted into through holes of the printed wiring board,
Soldered and connected to the printed wiring board. In the conventional connector 1 ' constructed as described above, since there is a part of the terminal exposed portion 3b' from the housing, the impedance is inevitably increased, and when a high-speed electric signal flows, the signal between the printed wiring board and the connector is transmitted. There is a drawback that not only reflection occurs and reflection noise occurs, but also the influence between adjacent terminals is large and characteristics such as crosstalk deteriorate. In order to reduce the reflection noise due to the impedance mismatch, for example, a method of making the impedance of the connector close to the impedance of the printed wiring board by surrounding the signal terminal with the ground terminal and taking a pseudo coaxial structure is adopted. There is also. At the same time, since a shielding effect by the ground terminal can be expected, crosstalk can be suppressed. However, even in the connector having the pseudo coaxial structure as described above, if the ratio of signal to ground is 1: 1, a connector having twice as many poles as the number of signal terminals is required, and not only is the outer shape inevitably increased, but also the connector becomes larger. In addition, since the printed wiring board needs to be designed in consideration of the arrangement of the signal terminals and the ground terminals of the connector, there is a drawback that the design is restricted.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The connector 1 for high-speed transmission of the present invention solves such a drawback and is most suitable for connecting printed wiring boards, and reduces impedance, crosstalk, noise and the like. The first purpose is to provide a connector for high-speed transmission with high speed. The first is a terminal exposed portion 3 in which the conductive terminal 3 is exposed to air.
b, a wall is formed between the terminals, and a comb-shaped cover 5 formed of a conductive resin is provided. Secondly, an insulating resin layer 7 is further formed on the comb-like cover 5 formed of a conductive resin of the first high-speed transmission connector.

[0004]

The cover, which is formed of a comb-shaped conductive resin and is provided so as to surround the conductive terminals, serves as a ground, reduces the impedance of the terminal exposed portions, and matches the impedance of the printed wiring board. I can do it.
In addition, crosstalk between adjacent terminals can be reduced by the shielding effect of the conductive resin.
