Connector-board assembly, and electronic apparatus

Abstract

A connector-board assembly and an electronic apparatus detect damage to a receptacle connector. The connector-board assembly includes a receptacle connector and a board on which the receptacle connector is mounted. The receptacle connector has a tongue portion having electrodes at an approximately intermediate portion in a vertical direction of a plug insertion hollow portion. The tongue portion includes insulating layers provided above and below a metal plate and includes the electrodes on the surfaces of the insulating layers. The metal plate includes a first portion and a second portion which extend from a base end side toward an opening side and are electrically conductive to each other on the opening side. The first portion is connected to a signal input port on the board and connected to a power supply via a pull-up resistor. The second portion is connected to the ground.
