Electrical connector and electrical connector assembly
An electrical connector includes two adjacent terminal groups in a front-rear direction, including a front terminal group and a rear terminal group. Each terminal group includes a ground terminal and a signal terminal. The ground terminal has a first base portion and a first elastic arm. The first elastic arm includes two extending arms and a through slot formed therebetween. The signal terminal has a second base portion and a second elastic arm. The first elastic arm and the second elastic arm are used to be electrically connected to a mating member. In a same terminal group, the signal terminal is located in front of the first base portion, and the second elastic arm runs through the through slot. The mating member presses on the first elastic arm. The first elastic arm of the ground terminal of the rear terminal group abuts the ground terminal of the front terminal group.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR AND ASSEMBLY THEREOF
An electrical connector comprises an insulative housing extending in a horizontal direction and a plurality of conductive terminals retained in the insulative housing. The electrical connector is provided with a first receiving cavity and a second receiving cavity which are arranged in an up-and-down arrangement in a vertical direction perpendicular to the horizontal direction. Each conductive terminals comprises a first contact portion extending upwardly into the first receiving cavity and a second contact portion extending downwardly into the second receiving cavity. The conductive terminals are used to electrically connect a pair of first and second electrical components which are respectively inserted into the first and second receiving cavity via the first and second contact portions. The electrical connector is provided with the receiving cavity for inserting the second electrical component, thereby facilitating the assembly of the second electrical component and the electrical connector.
CONNECTOR HAVING PAIRED SIGNAL CONTACTS SURROUNDED BY CONJOINED GROUNDING CONTACTS
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing with plural passageways arranged in a hexagonal dense manner. Plural signal contacts and grounding contacts are disposed in the corresponding passageways, respectively, in a mixed manner wherein each pair of signal contacts are surrounded by eight grounding contacts. Some grounding contacts are aligned with one another along a row direction and linked together via a transverse bar, and a pair of extensions extend from the two opposite ends of the transverse bar in a column direction perpendicular to the row direction so as to have the pair of signal contacts essentially fully enclosed and shielded within a region with the boundary defined by a combination of the grounding contacts and the transverse bars.
Socket, connector comprising such socket, and header used in such connector
A socket-side terminal includes: a root section that is fixed to a conductive wiring pattern on the main surface of a circuit wiring substrate by using solder; a rising section rising up from the root section and spaced apart from the main surface; an inverted U-shaped section one end of which is continuous with the top end of the rising section; a falling section that extends from the other end of the inverted U-shaped section towards the main surface; an inclined section that, as the inclined section extends from the bottom end of the falling section towards the main surface, is inclined with respect to the main surface to be spaced apart from the rising section; and an opposing section that is continuous with the bottom end of the inclined section, is positioned so as to be opposing the falling section, and is in contact with a header-side terminal.
Electrical connector between CPU and PCB
An electrical connector for connection between the CPU and the PCB includes an insulative housing, an insulative plate below the housing and a plurality of contacts retained to the housing and the plate. The housing forms a receiving cavity for receiving the CPU, and the plate forms a mounting face confronting the PCB. Each contact includes an upper part and a lower part discrete and independent from each other. The upper part includes an upward resilient arm extending into the receiving cavity for mechanically and electrically connecting to the CPU, and a bottom connecting section. The lower part includes a downward resilient arm extending toward the PCB for mechanically and electrically connecting to the PCB, and a top connecting section. The bottom connecting section and the top connecting section are mechanically and electrically connected to each other.
Interposer
An interposer includes a housing having a plurality of through-holes penetrating a first surface and a second surface and a signal contact pair composed of a pair of signal contacts. Each of the signal contacts includes a base portion press-fitted in one of the through-holes, a first contact beam extending from the base portion beyond the first surface, and a second contact beam extending from the base portion beyond the second surface. The pair of signal contacts are positioned adjacently to each other widthwise and are each asymmetrical with respect to a width direction. The signal contact pair has a plane-symmetrical shape with respect to the width direction.
CONNECTOR ASSEMBLY FOR ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE
A connector assembly includes a cover assembly and a feedthrough assembly that couples with the cover assembly. The cover assembly receives a connector end of a lead having lead contacts, and aligns the lead contacts with pockets or apertures of the cover assembly. The feedthrough assembly may include feedthrough contacts in the form of feedthrough pins at or above a surface of a feedthrough substrate, or conductive vias on the surface of the substrate. Electrical contacts configured as leaf spring contact assemblies, torsion spring contacts, or torsion spring contact assemblies are permanently attached to the feedthrough contacts. When the cover assembly and feedthrough assembly are coupled, contact tabs of the electrical contacts are positioned in the pockets or apertures of the cover assembly. Upon complete seating of the cover assembly and feedthrough assembly, the contact tabs are compressed into contact with the lead contacts.
ELASTIC CONTACT SPRING AND ADAPTER USING THE CONTACT SPRING
Disclosed are an elastic contact spring and an adapter using the contact spring, The elastic contact spring comprises two contact parts and a connecting part located between the two contact parts, the two contact parts are arc-shaped and their peripheral surfaces form jacking surfaces in conductive contact with corresponding connectors, the two contact parts are in transition connection via the connecting part and their respective arc-shaped openings are respectively located on two sides of the connecting part. When the elastic contact spring is pressed in use, the arc-shaped contact parts and the connecting part of the elastic contact spring all form deformation parts to disperse the deformation stress, thereby prolonging the service life of the elastic contact spring, and tho elastic contact spring, which is only formed by simple arcs, does not have a special requirement for materials.
CONNECTOR FOR MATRIX CONNECTION BETWEEN A HOUSING AND A SUPPORT, COMPRISING A BENT MAIN BODY
An electrical connector allowing a connection between two substantially facing electrical contacts respectively pertaining to a housing and a support, and including a main body including a first end for secure connection thereof to the housing and a second end for secure connection thereof to the support, the main body being bent in at least one bending area.
Surface-mount-technology-compatible electrical contact
A contact to provide an electrical connection between two circuit boards, such as a rigid circuit board and a flexible circuit board installed in a container, such as an electronic stylus or a cellular telephone. The contact head generally has the shape of an inverted spoon, which allows the contact head to slide smoothly onto a desired electrical contact pad on the flexible circuit board. The contact has a unitary design, including a spring, which reduces the likelihood of damage to the flexible circuit board or to the contact when the rigid circuit board is installed in the electronic stylus. The spring design reduces the likelihood that the contact will be bent when the rigid circuit board is installed, and also allows the contact to be balanced, which is advantageous for wave-soldering operations. The contact also has a pick surface, which is useful in vacuum pick-and-place operations.
