An electrical connector comprises an insulative shell having a floor; a first plurality of contacts extending through the floor, wherein the first plurality of contacts are disposed in a plurality of columns; a second plurality of contacts extending through the floor, wherein the second plurality of contacts are interspersed with the first plurality of contacts within the plurality of columns; and a conductive member adjacent the floor. The conductive member comprises a first plurality of openings, wherein the first plurality of contacts extend through the openings of the first plurality of openings; a second plurality of openings, wherein the second plurality of contacts extend through the openings of the second plurality of openings; and a first plurality of tabs, extending into openings in the insulative shell.

The disclosure provides an electric connector, which includes a base, a cover, and an elastic member. The cover covers the base and is formed with a chamber. The cover is disposed with a key and a trough. The elastic member is disposed in the chamber and includes a lower plate, an upper plate, and a flexible arm. The lower plate is fixed on the base. The upper plate is formed above the lower plate. The flexible arm is connected between the lower plate and the upper plate. The upper plate is extended with a hook. The hook movably enters or leaves each trough. The upper plate is disposed with a pressed portion corresponding to the key in position. The pressed portion drives each hook to move out from each trough through pressing of the key so as to implement unlatching of the electric connector.

An expansion card assembly, including an expansion card body and a connector. The expansion card body includes a notch recessed into an edge thereof. The connector includes a housing. The housing includes a top surface, a bottom surface, and an engaging portion disposed on the bottom surface. The bottom surface is close to the expansion card body. The engaging portion is exposed out of the notch. The engaging portion connects the connector with an external power cord. A user operates the engaging portion at the bottom surface of the housing of the connector with fingers. Therefore, the expansion card assembly and the connector solve the problem that the too narrow space between the top surface of the housing and the other components makes it difficult for the user to stretch fingers into the space between the top surface of the housing and the other component.

A liquid discharge apparatus includes a print head discharging a liquid and a control circuit controlling an operation of the print head. the print head includes a connector having a first terminal, a second terminal, a third terminal, and a fourth terminal, a first integrated circuit, a circuit substrate on which the connector and the first integrated circuit are provided and which has first wiring, second wiring, third wiring, fourth wiring, fifth wiring, and sixth wiring, and a first wiring substrate, in which the first wiring electrically couples the first terminal and the first integrated circuit to each other, the fifth wiring electrically couples the first terminal and the first integrated circuit to each other, and the sixth wiring electrically couples the first integrated circuit and the first wiring substrate to each other.

A connector (10) according to the present disclosure includes an insulator to be fitted to a connection object (60), and contacts (50) attached to the insulator. Each of the contacts (50) includes a contact portion (59), a first elastic portion (54A), a first adjustment portion (54B1), and a second adjustment portion (54B2). The contact portion (59) electrically contacts the connection object (60) when the insulator and the connection object (60) are fitted together. The first elastic portion (54A) is elastically deformable and extends from a first base (51) supported by the insulator. The first adjustment portion (54B1) is formed continuously with the first elastic portion (54A) and has an electric conductivity higher than that of the first elastic portion (54A). The second adjustment portion (54B2) is formed continuously with the first adjustment portion (54B1) and has an electric conductivity lower than that of the first adjustment portion (54B1).

An electrical connector includes a first conductive terminal, a second conductive terminal, an insulated body integrally molded on the first conductive terminal and the second conductive terminal, and a metallic shell on the insulated body. The insulated body includes a first tongue portion and a second tongue portion aligned side by side. The first conductive terminal is provided with a first contact portion. The second conductive terminal is provided with a second contact portion. The metallic shell includes a first cylinder portion provided with a first space and a second cylinder portion provided with a second space. The first cylinder portion surrounding the first tongue portion and the second cylinder portion surrounding the second tongue portion share a dividing portion for separating the first space from the second space, so that the two electrical connection ports of the electrical connector are independent and avoid mutual influence between the two electrical connection ports.

A connector includes plural terminals, a housing holding the terminals, and an inner shield. The connector is configured to be connected to a mating connector by moving toward the mating connector in a first direction relatively with respect to the mating connector. The terminals include two terminals arranged on both sides of the inner shield in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The inner shield includes a base extending in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction, and an extension protruding from the base. The housing includes a shield holder holding the extension. This connector reduces noise propagation between the terminals.

A contact assembly includes a contact array having contacts including signal contacts and ground contacts. The signal contacts include signal intermediate portions extending between signal mating beams and signal contact tails. The ground contacts include ground intermediate portions extending between ground mating beams and ground contact tails. The contact assembly includes front and rear contact holders. The contact assembly includes a ground bus bridge extending between each of the ground contacts to electrically common each of the ground contacts. The ground bus bridge is integral with the ground contacts and extends across the signal intermediate portions in close proximity to the signal intermediate portions for resonance control of signals transmitted along the signal contacts.

In one embodiment, a clip pin of a secondary printed circuit board removably coupled to a primary printed circuit board and a backplate in an information handling system includes: an open end configured to receive a guide pin of the backplate within a clip pin hole of the primary printed circuit board, the guide pin configured to removably couple to the clip pin via the open end; a bulbous portion disposed proximate to the open end, the guide pin causing the bulbous portion to apply an outward force on an inner wall of the clip pin hole; and a plurality of signal pins disposed within the bulbous portion, the outward force causing the plurality of signal pins to communicably couple to the inner wall to transmit a signal from the secondary printed circuit board to the primary printed circuit board.

A connector for interfacing with a circuit board includes a body having opposing first and second face surfaces and defining a plurality of ports extending between the face surfaces. A plurality of center conductors extend in respective ports between the face surfaces. Support elements engage the center conductors to secure the center conductors generally centered in the respective ports. Each center conductor includes a pin portion positioned proximate to the first face surface and a plunger portion positioned to extend beyond the second face surface. The plunger portion moves longitudinally with respect to the connector second face surface for varying the distance of an end of the center conductor from the second face surface to allow adjustability in the interfacing of the connector with a circuit board or other signal handling component.
