TERMINAL

A terminal includes a terminal body and a slider. The terminal body is formed by processing a metal sheet. The terminal body is coupled to a front end of an electric wire with respect to an extending direction in which the electric wire extends. The terminal body holds the electric wire. The slider is slidable in the extending direction relative to the terminal body. The terminal body includes connecting tabs that includes contact surfaces contactable with the electric wire. Each of the connecting tabs has a cantilever shape. The slider includes pressing portions that press the connecting tabs so that the connecting tabs deform and the contact surfaces contact the electric wire when the slider is slid. The connecting tabs include burrs that are produced during processing of the metal sheet. The burrs protrude from the contact surfaces toward the electric wire.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING AN ELECTRICAL GROUND CONNECTION FOR A CIRCUIT ASSEMBLY

A system is described for providing an electrical ground connection for a circuit assembly. The system may include a housing for the circuit assembly, the housing having an electrically conductive fixation member configured for attachment to an electrically conductive element outside the housing. The system may also include an electrically conductive feature having a first end and a second end, the first end configured to cooperate with the electrically conductive fixation member inside the housing and the second end configured for attachment to the circuit assembly. Attachment of the electrically conductive fixation member to the electrically conductive element outside the housing enables an electrical ground connection for the circuit assembly via the electrically conductive feature.
