Patent attributes
A video display connector having protection circuit includes an insulating stand, a conducting terminal array fixedly connected to the insulating stand, a circuit board disposed in correspondence with the insulating stand and providing electrical connection to a lateral end of the conducting terminal array, a protective element electrically connected with the circuit board and forming a protective circuit therewith, and a transmission line disposed on and electrically connected to the circuit board, the disposition of the transmission line being spatially apart from the insulating stand. Through providing a protection circuit within the video display connector, the main circuit board of the electronic apparatus is shielded from current overload originating from an external audio/video device when the electronic apparatus is connected thereto through the contact terminals of the video display connector.
