Substrate mounting type photoelectric conversion connector

Abstract

A substrate mounting type photoelectric conversion connector capable of reducing stress produced in a portion in which a lead terminal and a substrate are connected to each other is provided. The substrate mounting type photoelectric conversion connector includes an optical unit including a fitting portion to which a mating optical member can be fit, in which at least a portion that includes the fitting portion and serves as a path of optical signals is formed of a light-transmissive material; a photoelectric conversion unit including a photoelectric conversion element that is disposed such that an optical axis coincides with an optical axis of the mating optical member; and a lead terminal that is connected to the photoelectric conversion unit and that electrically connects the photoelectric conversion element to a substrate, the optical unit provided with a substrate connecting portion that is configured connect to the substrate.
