Abstract
An electrical connector () includes an insulative housing () for receiving a number of contacts (). The insulative housing has a base () extending in a longitudinal direction and a mating portion () protruding forwardly from the base. The base () defines a slot () from an intermediate position thereof and extending forwardly through the mating portion (). The mating portion () defines a receiving hole () extending into the base (). The receiving hole () is in communication with the slot (). The slot () can counteract a deformation of the insulative housing to ensure the soldering tails () of the contacts coplanar with one another, thereby ensuring the contacts to be wonderfully surface mounted on a PCB.
