Abstract

An electronic device assembly includes an electronic device and a mini connector. The electronic device includes a first housing. The first housing includes an assembling opening, a first positioning portion located adjacent to the assembling opening, and a first connecting terminal set located in the assembling opening. The mini connector includes a second housing, a connecting wire, and a second connecting terminal set. The second housing includes a second positioning portion having a shape complementary to that of the first positioning portion. The connecting wire passing through the second housing is electrically connected to the second connecting terminal set located in the second housing. The second positioning portion is located at one side of the second connecting terminal set. With the complementary relationship between the shapes of the second positioning portion and the first positioning portion, the mini connector is configured to be connected only to the electronic device.
