The present disclosure provides a female connector and a connector combination. The female connector includes: a female terminal having a first end for mating with a male connector or a gold finger circuit board, and a second end for connection with a PCB board, the female terminal being formed with at least one shape abruptly-changed portion between the first end and the second end, and a high-frequency radiation area being formed in the vicinity of the shape abruptly-changed portion when the first end is mated with the male connector or the gold finger circuit board; and a wave-absorbing material disposed in a spatial range covered by the high-frequency radiation area. By selectively disposing the wave-absorbing material in an area where a high-frequency radiation is easily generated during the use of the connector, crosstalk signals are absorbed, while normally transmitted electrical signals are retained, and an overall weight of the connector is light.

The present application provides a female connector, a male connector and a connector assembly. The female connector includes: a plurality of female terminals, ends of which are radially expanded outward to form trumpet-shaped guide heads for blind mating with a male connector or a gold finger circuit board; a cantilever section of the female terminal being bent at at least one position to form an elastic pressing portion for an interference fit contact with the male connector or the gold finger circuit board; a first high-frequency radiation area being formed in the vicinity of the trumpet-shaped guide head when the female terminals are mated with the male connector or the gold finger circuit board; and a first wave-absorbing material is disposed in a spatial scope covered by the first high-frequency radiation area. By selectively disposing a wave-absorbing material in an area where a high-frequency radiation is easily generated during the use of the connector, crosstalk signals are absorbed, while normally transmitted electrical signals are kept, and an overall weight of the connector is light.

An electrical circuit board plug contact device includes an electrical circuit board contact element and an electrical plug contact element formed separately from the electrical circuit board contact element. The electrical plug contact element is laterally offset with respect to the electrical circuit board contact element and an electrically conductive connection is provided between the electrical circuit board contact element and the electrical plug contact element.

An electrical system includes a conductor configured to carry energy from an electrical power supply, a receiver configured to output energy to an electrical component, and a connector electrically and mechanically connecting the conductor and the receiver. The connector includes a base and a head extending from the base along a longitudinal axis. The head includes a void defined therein by a radially inner surface and further includes a radially outer surface. At least a portion of the radially outer surface is curved about the longitudinal axis. The head is insertable into the receiver, and elastic deformation of the head causes the connector to press against the receiver to retain the connector and the receiver together.

Aspects of the invention include a press-fit pin for mechanically and electrically connecting to a through-hole of a substrate. The press-fit pin can include a press-fit portion configured to be deformed upon insertion into the through-hole against a plated surface of the through-hole. A surface mount technology (SMT) pad can be coupled to a first end of the press-fit portion. The SMT pad can include a conductive material. The press-fit pin can further include a trace extension coupled to the SMT pad. The trace extension can extend from the SMT pad in a direction perpendicular to the press-fit portion. The press-fit pin can include a tip portion coupled to a second end of the press-fit portion.

Photovoltaic panels may be aggregated in various ways and may be aggregated with the use of a backplane where the backplane comprises electrical connectors positioned to electrically connect the PV panels. The PV panels may have various sizes and shapes and may overlap one or more other PV panels or PV panels being aggregated.

An electrical connector includes an insulating body, a number of first conductive terminals and a number of second conductive terminals. Each first conductive terminal includes a first mating arm. Each second conductive terminal includes a second mating arm and a second press-fit portion for being mounted to a circuit board. Among the second conductive terminals, the second press-fit portions corresponding to any two adjacent second mating arms are arranged in a staggered manner with each other along a second arrangement direction of the second mating arms. Therefore, it effectively avoids the mutual influence between the second press-fit portions, and facilitates the realization of the installation with the circuit board. The present disclosure also discloses an electrical connector assembly having the electrical connector.

A low insertion force contact terminal which has a conductor mating portion, a securing portion and a substrate mating portion. The conductor mating portion is configured to terminate a conductor therein. The securing portion is configured to secure the terminal in a terminal receiving cavity of a housing. The substrate mating portion extends from the securing portion. The substrate mating portion has at least two sections which have curved portions thereon. The at least two sections move independently, which allows the curved portions to exert a normal force on walls of through holes of a substrate to which the contact terminal is mated which is sufficient to provide a stable electrical connection while allowing for a low insertion force.

A power connector assembly includes a busbar having a mounting surface and openings extending into the busbar being open at the mounting surface and power contacts arranged in a power contact array electrically connected to the busbar. Each power contact includes a main body, a first compliant pin extending from the main body, and a second compliant pin extending from the main body. The first compliant pin is received in the corresponding opening of the busbar to electrically connect the power contact to the busbar. The second compliant pin is configured to be received in a plated via of a printed circuit board to electrically connect the power contact to the printed circuit board. The power contact array mechanically and electrically connects the busbar to the printed circuit board.

An Insulation Displacement Contact Compliant connector system (IDCC) which includes a housing, header pins, and a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). Each header pin has at least a single barb to be retained into the housing. Each pin has a blade for contacting a wire. A compliant feature on the pin retains itself into holes in the PCB. The housing has a negative space similarly shaped to the pin. The housing includes a strain relief which provides a lead-in for a wire. When the system is fully assembled, the pins reside in the housing, and exit through the housing and into and through respective holes in the PCB. A wire can be inserted into the housing once the pins reside in the housing. There are several options for the assembly process including a) a pin-to-housing insertion process; b) a housing assembly-to-PCB process or a connector-to-PCB process; and c) a wired housing assembly-to-PCB assembly process or a wire harness-to-PCB assembly process.
