A single element electrical connector includes a single conductive contact element formed into a cage structure having a wire insert end and a wire contact end along a longitudinal centerline axis of the connector. The cage structure defines an upper pick-up surface having a surface area suitable for placement of a suction nozzle of a vacuum transfer device, as well as a pair of contact tines biased towards the centerline axis to define a contact pinch point for an exposed core of a wire inserted into the connector. A contact surface is defined by a member of the cage structure for electrical mating contact with a respective contact element on a component on which the connector is mounted.

An input module includes a terminal block and a removable printed circuit board (PCB). The terminal block includes first and second connector assemblies for electrically coupling first and second electrical wires of an external thermocouple to the PCB. At least one of the first or second connector assemblies includes an internal thermocouple. The internal thermocouple has two conductive legs which are formed of different materials and are separated at an end to form a jaw connector for connecting or disconnecting an edge of the printed circuit board to or from the terminal block respectively. The PCB includes a sensor for measuring a temperature on the PCB, and a processing circuit configured to perform cold junction compensation using a cold junction temperature which is determined based on temperature measurement from the sensor and a temperature or voltage measurement from the internal thermocouple, when measuring hot junction temperature of the external thermocouple.

A connector, with which an electrical wire is attachable, is connectable with a mating connector which has a mating contact portion. The connector comprises a housing and at least one terminal. The housing is provided with a support. The support has a receiving portion. The receiving portion is configured to receive a part of the electrical wire. The at least one terminal has an insulation displacement connection (IDC) portion, a contact portion, a supporting portion and a coupling portion. The IDC portion is configured to be insulation-displacement connected with the electrical wire. The support is positioned between the IDC portion and the supporting portion in a first predetermined direction. The coupling portion couples the IDC portion and the supporting portion with each other. The coupling portion has a neighboring portion. The neighboring portion neighbors to the support in a second predetermined direction perpendicular to the first predetermined direction.

A connector comprises an insert-molded body. The insert-molded body comprises a housing and a terminal partially embedded in the housing. The housing has a main portion. The main portion is formed with a trace hole and an accommodation space. The terminal has a held portion, a bent-back portion extending forward from the held portion, a support portion extending rearward from the bent-back portion and a contact portion supported by the support portion. The held portion has a wide portion. When the insert-molded body is seen from above, the wide portion is, at least in part, visible through the trace hole. Each of the support portion and the contact portion has a size smaller than that of the wide portion in the lateral direction. The wide portion is partially visible through the accommodation space when the insert-molded body is seen from below.

The subject disclosure relates to a water-tight sealed stud assembly for high current applications. The water-tight sealed stud assembly can include a stud, a sealing ring, a sleeve, and a body. The stud may have a stud base and a thickened portion having an annular groove. The sealing ring may be disposed in the annular groove. The sleeve may be disposed circumferentially around the stud and made of a conductive material. The body may be disposed circumferentially around the sleeve and made of a non-conductive material. Systems and methods are also provided.

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.

A connector assembly includes housing for storing components of the connector assembly. The connector assembly further includes a cable including a cable center conductor, wherein the cable center conductor is configured as a signal conductor. The connector assembly also includes a first dielectric and an alignment dielectric. Each of the first dielectric and the alignment dielectric includes a path to guide the cable center conductor through an angle to a printed circuit board as the cable is axially inserted into the housing.

A connector assembly comprises a first connector and a second connector. The first connector includes a first housing and first connection terminals. The first housing defines a receiving cavity with an open upper end. A second connector includes a second housing and second connection terminals. The second housing is adapted to be partially inserted into the receiving cavity such that the second connection terminals electrically contact with the first connection terminals. The second housing defines an oblique-insertion restriction structure protruding from a remaining uninserted portion of the second housing. The restriction structure is sized and positioned to abut against an upper end surface of the first housing in a condition in which the second housing is inserted into the receiving cavity in an oblique posture relative to the first housing.
