An electrical connector assembly comprises: a metallic housing having a receiving space extending along a longitudinal and two openings respectively formed on top and bottom surfaces thereof and communicated with the receiving space; a pair of flexible printed circuit boards (FPCs) received into the receiving space and arranged in a back-to-back manner. Each of the FPC defines a protuberant portion extending into the corresponding opening. And each of the protuberant portion has a plurality of contacts formed on one side thereof and communicated with an exterior. A pair of supporting pieces are received into the receiving space and attached to another side of the protuberant portion. And a spacer is received into the receiving space and sandwiched between the pair of flexible printed circuit boards and supporting pieces.

Electrical connector assembly and method of manufacturing the same

An electrical connector () for mating with a mating connector () along a mating direction includes an insulative housing (), a pair of latches () and a number of terminals () received in the insulative housing. The insulative housing has a front face (), a pair of side walls () each defining an opening (), a pair of receiving spaces () defined between the pair of side walls, and a partition () disposed between the pair of receiving spaces. The pair of latches are mounted in the openings and each formed with an engaging portion (). The latch resiliently yields in the opening along a moving direction perpendicular to the mating direction to permit the engaging portion moveable between a locked position and an unlocked position.
