Electrical connector provided with power terminals adapted to carry different voltages

An electrical connector comprising:

• a mating port;
• a mating tongue exposed in said mating port;
• a set of standard terminals disposed on a same first face of said mating tongue and a middle region thereof;
• a plurality of expanded terminals, comprising:
• a first group of power terminals adapted to carry a first predetermined voltage;
• and
• a second group of power terminals adapted to carry a second predetermined voltage;
• wherein at least some power terminals within said first and second groups are located at a second plane different from that of the standard terminals;
• wherein said expanded terminals further include a third group of power terminals adapted to carry a third predetermined voltage;
• wherein the power terminals within said third group are located at a first side region of the mating tongue but on two different planes, the power terminals within said second group are located at an opposite second side region of the mating tongue but on the two different planes, the power terminals within said first group are located at the second plane;
• wherein each group of power terminals is adapted to carry a respective one of 3V, 5V, 12V.
