Claims13
A connector to be mounted on a second, substantially planar substrate, the connector comprising:
- a housing having a first side wall, and a second bottom wall to be opposed to the second substrate;
- and
- at least one connector module including
- a first, substantially planar, thermally conductive substrate having a main body received by the housing and a projection portion extending from the main body and out of the first side wall of the housing, and
- at least one thermally conductive terminal on the first substrate extending through the second bottom wall of the housing to contact the second, substantially planar substrate,
- wherein the first substrate is substantially perpendicular to the second substrate, and
- wherein a first end of the at least one terminal is arranged on a pad of the second substrate and is soldered on the pad, and the first end of the at least one terminal has a front edge and has a front edge substantially parallel to the second substrate.
