ABSTRACT:
A land grid array connector (10) includes a housing (20) and clamping lid (38) for interconnecting arrays of contact pads of a component (50) and the contact pads (14) of a circuit board (12) through a planar connector insert (50) having a plastic comb (51) with coil springs (72) threaded on teeth (54) of the comb and with plastic cross bars (60) threaded over the comb teeth to position the contact springs in rows compatible with the rows of contact pads. The cross bars and springs are alternated to define a planar structure with the springs on the centers to engage the pads of contacts when the insert is positioned within the connector and clamped to press the springs between the pads. A method of manufacture including the steps of assembly of comb, contact springs and cross bars and affixing the cross bars to the comb.
