A socket connector includes a housing having a pin access opening through a bottom open to a cavity configured to receive a pin. The socket connector includes a socket in the cavity electrically connected to a pin. The socket connector includes a latch movably received in a latch pocket to engage the pin to secure the socket connector to the pin. The latch includes a latch release accessible exterior of the housing to release the latch. The latch release moves the latch between a latched position and a clearance position. A latching rib of the latch engages the pin in the latched position and is released from the pin in the clearance position to allow uncoupling of the socket connector from the pin.

A connector includes a housing, a first electrode and a second electrode. The housing further includes a first body, bending parts, foolproof key positions, a second buckle, a first opening and a second opening. The first body forms a first accommodating space and a second accommodating space. The first accommodating space is provided with the foolproof key positions, the first opening, the second opening and the second buckle. The second buckle can be arranged corresponding to a first buckle of the wire end connector to buckle the wire end connector in the first accommodating space and the second accommodating space. The first electrode includes a first end and a third end, and the third end forms first current divider pins. The second electrode includes a second end and a fourth end, and the fourth end forms second current divider pins.

A plug connector includes a plug housing having a plurality of side walls forming a cavity, a spacer having a plate shape and dividing the cavity into a pair of halves, a plurality of conductive terminals disposed on opposite sides of the spacer, a connector engagement component, and a pull tab. The connector engagement component has a first engagement portion releasably engaging a second engagement portion of a socket connector and a fixing portion detachably secured to the side walls of the plug housing. The pull tab is movable between the plug housing and the connector engagement component in a direction towards or away from a cable connected to the conductive terminals. Pulling of the pull tab in a pulling direction towards the cable enables release of an engagement between the first engagement portion and the second engagement portion, separating the plug connector from the socket connector.

A cable-end connector, a board-end connector and an assembly thereof are provided. The assembly of the cable-end connector and the board-end connector includes a cable-end connector and a board-end connector. The cable-end connector includes an outer casing, a first contact member, a second contact member, two cables and a first locking structure. The board-end connector is used to mate with the cable-end connector, and the board-end connector includes a circuit board, a third contact member, a fourth contact member and a second locking structure. By that the first contact member and the second contact member are arranged diagonally and the third contact member and the fourth contact member are arranged diagonally, the cable-end connector and the board-end connector can be reduced in width along a lateral direction, and designed spaces respectively for the first locking structure and the second locking structure can be reserved, in turn a space of the cable-end connector and a space of the board-end connector can be used effectively.

An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and a plurality of power contact pairs, the insulative housing has a mounting section for installing on a printed circuit board, a mating section and a plurality of contact-receiving passageways extending along a front-and-back direction. The power contact pairs are retained in corresponding contact-receiving passageways and divided into two rows along a height direction, each power contact pair in each row has two flaky power contacts, each power contact has a retaining portion held in the relative contact-receiving passageway, at least one contacting portion extending forwards from the retaining portion and at least one soldering portion bending from a rear end of the retaining portion. One row of power contact pairs is assembled into the insulative housing along a back-to-front direction, and the other row of power contact pairs is assembled into the insulative housing in an up-and-down direction.

The invention provides an electrical connection assembly comprising a connector and a printed circuit board for a light module for motor vehicles, and a diagnostic method for checking the hold of a connector in a socket by means of a check electrical signal, using minimal electronic components.

A power module includes at least one power substrate; a plurality of power devices arranged on the at least one power substrate; and a power connector configured to be electrically connected to the plurality of power devices. The power connector includes a mechanically compliant fitting.

A connector that enables electronic assemblies to be efficiently configured for any of multiple power requirements. The connector may have a mating interface, which may mate with a power supply, a mounting interface for attaching the connector to a PCB and a power tap off interface. The power tap off interface enables distribution of a portion of the power received through the mating interface to remote locations on the PCB. Terminals with portions at each of the mating interface, mounting interface and power tap off interface may be formed from subassemblies, with conductors of one terminal subassembly engaging conductors of another subassembly. One subassembly may have conductors with mating contact portions at one end and a body portion with holes at the other end. Another subassembly may have conductors with tails passing through and engaging the holes in the body portion of the other.

A socket connector is configured to mount to a component, such as a printed circuit board. The socket connector includes a base having a passageway and a channel extending outwardly from the passageway, a barrel including a wall having a flange extending outwardly therefrom, at least one biasing member engaging the flange and surrounding the wall, and a contact seated within the barrel. The wall is seated within the passageway and the flange is seated within the channel. The barrel is configured for movement within the base to align a centerline of a pin inserted into the socket connector with a centerline of the hole of the component.

A power adapter assembly structure is disclosed and includes a circuit board, a socket and at least one elastic element. The socket is disposed adjacent to the circuit board. The circuit board and the socket are configured to collaboratively form at least one abutting surface and at least one fixing surface. The elastic element is connected between the circuit board and the socket, and includes a main body, a fixed portion and a hanging arm. The fixed portion and the hanging arm are disposed at two opposite ends of the main body, the fixed portion spatially corresponds to the fixing surface, and the hanging arm constantly abuts the abutting surface. A height is formed between the main body of the at least one elastic element and the at least one abutting surface, and less than a length of the hanging arm extended from the main body.
