The guide member includes guide holes into which the respective cores of the wires are inserted. The circuit board includes through-holes into which the respective cores of the wires passed through the guide holes are inserted. The guide holes include tapered holes configured in such a manner that each inner diameter is reduced as being closer to the circuit board. A circuit board-attached cable is composed of a cable including the wires, the circuit board, and the guide member.

An electrical connector includes an insulating body, a number of first conductive terminals and a number of second conductive terminals. The insulating body includes a mating slot for receiving a mating board. Each first conductive terminal includes a first extension arm having a first mating portion. Each second conductive terminal includes a second extension arm having a second mating portion. The first mating portion and the second mating portion are adapted to jointly clamp the mating board. Extension directions of the first extension arm and the second extension arm are opposite to each other. The first conductive terminals or the second conductive terminals include at least one radio frequency signal terminal for transmitting a radio frequency signal.

An alignment adapter is to be placed in physical communication with a connector of an information handling system. The alignment adapter includes an insert portion and a support wall. The insert portion is to be placed within the connector, and to provide a proper alignment of a device board within the connector. The support wall is to be placed in physical communication with an outside edge of the connector. The support wall is a particular distance from the insert portion. A chamfer of the connector is to be placed within the particular distance the support wall is from the insert portion when the insert portion is fully inserted within the connector.

A housing of a connector has end faces at both ends thereof in a pitch direction. The end faces correspond to protruding blocks of a mating connector 50, respectively. Two guide members are distinct and separated from each other. Each of the guide members has a side portion and two supporting portions. The guide members correspond to the end faces, respectively. Accordingly, the side portion and the supporting portions correspond to one of the end faces. The side portion is located apart from the end face corresponding thereto in the pitch direction. The side portion, the supporting portions and the end face corresponding to the side portion form a receiving portion. The receiving portion guides and receives the protruding block corresponding to the end face forming the receiving portion when the connector and the mating connector are mated with each other.

An electrical connector set includes first and second connectors, in which the first connector has a first connection terminal, a first high-frequency connection terminal transmitting a high frequency signal, and a first external grounding member surrounding the first high-frequency connection terminal, the second connector has a second connection terminal, a second high-frequency connection terminal, and a second external grounding member surrounding the second high-frequency connection terminal. At a time of fitting, the second external grounding member is located on an inner side of the first external grounding member, the first and second connection terminals are located on an outer side of the first external grounding member, the second external grounding member is closed in a peripheral shape to surround the first and second high-frequency connection terminals, and first and second mounting parts are located on an inner side of the second external grounding member.

An electrical connector assembly can include a plug connector mountable to a planar substrate and a receptacle connector configured to receive a plurality of cables and that can mate with the plug connector. The plug connector may include a first inline terminal row and a second inline terminal row exposed on a mounting face to conductively contact the planar substrate. The receptacle connector can include a plurality of terminals having termination ends aligned in common wafer plane that can be conductively terminated with the plurality of cables. The plug connector and the electrical connector are configured to establish electrical channels from the termination ends coplanar with the common wafer plan to the first and second inline terminal rows.

A circuit connection module include a board, an electronic component mounted on the board, and an electrically conductive member connected to the electronic component so as to be thermally conductive. The electronic component includes a heat dissipation portion exposed on an outer surface of the electronic component. The electrically conductive member includes a plate-shaped portion connected to the heat dissipation portion so as to be thermally conductive, and a terminal portion in which one end is connected to the plate-shaped portion so as to be thermally conductive and electrically conductive and the other end is in contact with a mating terminal.

A probe card device and a self-aligned probe are provided. The self-aligned probe includes a fixing end portion configured to be abutted against a space transformer, a testing end portion configured to detachably abut against a device under test (DUT), a first connection portion connected to the fixing end portion, a second connection portion connected to the testing end portion, and an arced portion that connects the first connection portion and the second connection portion. The fixing end portion and the testing end portion jointly define a reference line passing there-through. The first connection portion has an aligned protrusion, and a maximum distance between the arced portion and the reference line is greater than 75 μm and is less than 150 μm.

Blind mate connection techniques and associated connectors are disclosed. Blind mate connectors provide connections where visual inspection at time of connection may not be available. Stacking tolerance increases when connectors have a different set of datums (e.g., a different relative orientation) relative to adjacent connectors. Different datums permit twinning two printed circuit boards (“PCBs”) prior to insertion into a slot of a chassis. Each connector may be attached to a respective PCB utilizing a spring and offset feature to provide a standoff on a respective PCB. Control of standoff and rotational movement (e.g., via brackets) allows each individual connector to have a “float” for improved insertion tolerance. Connector pairs may connect through an opening in a midplane while simultaneously connecting to the midplane. Switch trays and node trays may be inserted through opposing sides of a chassis and be connected through the midplane of that chassis.

A probe card device and a disposable adjustment film thereof are provided. The disposable adjustment film is integrally formed as a single one-piece structure, and includes a probe hole and a plurality of first slots that are parallel to each other. The disposable adjustment film defines two predetermined lines respectively extending from two opposite lateral edges thereof to the probe hole. The two predetermined lines respectively extend across the first slots. In a plane that the disposable adjustment film is located thereon, when the disposable adjustment film is applied with forces that act in opposite directions and that are parallel to any one of the first slots, the disposable adjustment film is broken into two abandoned films along the two predetermined lines.
