[0040] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 , this embodiment provides a socket assembly, including:

[0041] The socket housing 100 includes a bottom plate 110 and side walls 120. The bottom plate 110 can be vertically connected to the side walls 120. The specific number of the side walls 120 can be set as needed, for example, it can be set according to the shape of the socket housing 100. In this embodiment, four side walls 120 are connected end to end in sequence. The socket housing 100 is generally in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped. The bottom plate 110 of this embodiment has an inner surface 111 and an outer surface 112 opposite to each other. The side walls 120 surround the bottom plate 110 and form a groove with the inner surface 111 to accommodate the terminal.

[0042] The plurality of input terminals 200 are connected to the bottom plate 110 and extend from the inner surface 111 of the bottom plate 110 to the outer surface 112 of the bottom plate 110; that is, the plurality of input terminals 200 of the present embodiment are disposed through the bottom plate 110. In addition, the plurality of input terminals 200 do not extend beyond the groove formed by the side wall 120 and the inner surface 111 of the bottom plate 110.

[0043] In this embodiment, the input terminal 200 is used to electrically connect to a connector outside the socket assembly.

[0044] A plurality of output terminals 300 are connected to the outer surface 112 of the bottom plate 110, wherein each output terminal 300 is connected to an input terminal 200. In this embodiment, three output terminals 300 and three input terminals 200 may be provided, wherein the three output terminals 300 are sequentially a first output terminal 310, a second output terminal 320 and a third output terminal 330, and each output terminal 300 is respectively connected to an input terminal 200. In this embodiment, at least two output terminals 300 (e.g., the first output terminal 310 and the second output terminal 320) extend in the same direction so as to realize electrical connection with external parts. Optionally, a through hole may be provided on each output terminal 300, and the input terminal 200 is inserted into the through hole and welded to the through hole, so as to realize electrical connection between the input terminal 200 and the corresponding output terminal 300.

[0045] The anti-interference module 400 includes a circuit board 410 and at least two Y capacitors 420, wherein the circuit board 410 is connected to a plurality of output terminals 300, that is, the circuit board 410 can be indirectly connected to the input terminal 200 by connecting to the output terminal 300. In this embodiment, the input terminal 200 can be arranged perpendicular to the bottom plate 110, and the output terminal 300 can be arranged parallel to the bottom plate 110. Further, the output terminal 300 can be substantially attached to the outer surface 112 of the bottom plate 110, so that the output terminal 300 occupies a smaller output terminal space. In addition, the circuit board 410 of this embodiment can be arranged parallel to the bottom plate 110, and the Y capacitor 420 is arranged on the side of the circuit board 410 facing the outer surface 112 of the bottom plate 110. The arrangement of the Y capacitor 420 will not increase the output terminal space, thereby helping to save the volume of the socket assembly on the side of the output terminal 300.

[0046] From the above description, it can be seen that in this embodiment, the output terminal 300 is connected to the circuit board 410 of the anti-interference module 400, and the Y capacitor 420 is arranged on the side of the circuit board 410 facing the outer surface of the base plate 110. While enhancing the electromagnetic interference suppression ability of the socket assembly, it saves the volume of the socket assembly on the side of the output terminal 300, reduces the space occupied by the socket assembly at the power output end, and is beneficial to the improvement of the power density of the power supply.

[0047] In one possible implementation, at least two Y capacitors 420 of this embodiment can be soldered to the circuit board 410 by reflow soldering. Reflow soldering is a soldering process mainly used to solder electronic components to circuit boards. This process uses solder paste (a mixture of solder and flux) to connect electronic components to contact pads, and then melts the solder by controlling the temperature to permanently bond the electronic components to the circuit board. The advantage of reflow soldering technology is that the temperature is easy to control, oxidation can be avoided during the soldering process, and the manufacturing cost is easier to control. Figure 4 As shown, the Y capacitor 420 includes a capacitor body 421 and pins 422 arranged on both sides of the capacitor body 421. The capacitor body 421 is surface-mounted on the circuit board 410, and is welded to the circuit board 410 through the pins 422 on both sides. The above structure is conducive to reducing the size between the bottom plate 110 and the circuit board 410 occupied by the Y capacitor 420, thereby helping to save the volume of the socket assembly on the output terminal 300 side.

[0048] Please continue to refer to Figure 3In a possible implementation, the plurality of output terminals 300 of this embodiment include a first output terminal 310, a second output terminal 320 and a third output terminal 330, wherein the first output terminal 310 is a positive output terminal, the second output terminal 320 is a negative output terminal, and the third output terminal 330 is a ground output terminal. In addition, the first output terminal 310 and the second output terminal 320 extend in the same direction and extend beyond the socket housing 100, so as to facilitate electrical connection with external parts. The extension direction of the third output terminal 330 can be set arbitrarily as needed, as long as the grounding requirement is met, for example, the third output terminal 330 can also be parallel to the first output terminal 310 and the second output terminal 320.

[0049] Furthermore, the first output terminal 310 and the second output terminal 320 of the present embodiment are used to vertically connect with a system board outside the socket assembly.

The structures of the first connection portion 340, the second connection portion 350 and the third connection portion 360 are similar, and all include a bending portion connected to the base plate 110 and a parallel portion parallel to the base plate 110. The bending portion is connected to the base plate 110, and an electrical connection with the circuit board 410 is achieved through the parallel portion, thereby increasing the contact area with the circuit board 410.

[0052] In some embodiments, the connection portion is connected to the circuit board 410 by wave soldering. The structures of the first connection portion 340, the second connection portion 350 and the third connection portion 360 are similar, and all include a bending portion connected to the base plate 110 and an extension portion that vertically passes through the circuit board 410. The bending portion is connected to the base plate 110, and the electrical connection with the circuit board 410 is achieved through the extension portion.

[0053] In some embodiments, the connection portion is connected to the circuit board 410 by wave soldering. The structures of the first connection portion 340, the second connection portion 350 and the third connection portion 360 are similar, and each includes an extension portion, through which the connection with the base plate 110 and the circuit board 410 is achieved.

[0054] Furthermore, two pins 422 of one of the two Y capacitors are electrically connected to the first connection portion 340 and the third connection portion 360 respectively, and two pins 422 of the other Y capacitor are electrically connected to the second connection portion 350 and the third connection portion 360 respectively.

[0055] In this embodiment, the connection part and the output terminal 300 can be integrally formed.
