Abstract
A connector assembly and a major connector thereof, wherein the connector assembly further comprises a minor connector that can be joined with the major connector, and the connector assembly is provided with a trigger component that can trigger power or signal transmission only when the major connector and the minor connector are properly joined. In this way, it solves the technical problem where multiple connectors belonging to a conventional connector assembly fail to transmit power or signals effectively due to improper joining, thereby enabling the connector assembly of the present application to timely transmit power or signals and function as expected in electronic devices.
