Abstract
A female connector capable of easily confirming whether or not a male connector is connected thereto, a connector module having the male connector, and an electronic device having the connector module are disclosed. The female connector comprises a connector body, a first terminal engagement pin and a second terminal engagement pin. The first terminal engagement pin is disposed inside the connector body and capable of receiving an input signal from a connection terminal of a male connector when the connection terminal is in contact therewith. The second terminal engaging pin is disposed inside the connector body to be spaced apart from the first terminal engaging pin. The first and second terminal engagement pins are electrically connected with each other through the connection terminal when the connection terminal is inserted and coupled between the first and second terminal engagement pins.
