PHOTOELECTRIC CONVERSION DEVICE, AND PHOTOELECTRIC COMPOUND CONNECTOR USED FOR THE SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To downsize a device, to save a space, and to improve a shielding effect, without forming an unnecessary space.SOLUTION: A photoelectric conversion device is made from a pair of a first connector and a second connector. The first connector and the second connector can be fitted with each other by fitting the first connector into a recessed portion provided on the second connector. The first connector has a first housing, and a plurality of first terminals aligned on the first housing. The second connector has a second housing, and a plurality of second terminals aligned on the second housing and capable of being connected with the first terminals of the first connector when fitting the first connector and the second connector. The first housing has a depression for storing a photoelectric conversion component which can be electrically connected with the first terminals. The photoelectric conversion component is shielded by using a ground plate arranged in the depression.
