Abstract:
A SMT/DIP type connector structure having at least three rows of terminals is provided. The connector structure mainly includes a printed circuit board and a connector having at least a first row of terminals, a second row of terminals and a third row of terminals. The printed circuit board is disposed centrally with respect to the connector. The first row and second row of terminals are respectively mounted to top and bottom board sides of the printed circuit board by using SMT. The third row and further rows of terminals can be mounted to the top or bottom board side of the printed circuit board selectively by using SMT or DIP. This structure can increase the speed of mounting the connector to the printed circuit board and significantly reduce the overall height of the resulted product.
