ABSTRACT:
In various embodiments, one or more connectors are configured to make electrical contact with side power and ground pads on a component. The connectors may include, in some embodiments, a conductive member and a compressible conductor for making electrical contact with the side pads. In some embodiments, the connectors are attached to a power board configured to be placed over a top of the component during use. In other embodiments, the connectors are attached to a socket into which the component is inserted during use. In still other embodiments, the connectors are attached to a motherboard to which the socket is attached.
