ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly (1) includes an LGA connector (2) having a metal clip (25) and a pick up cap (3). The pick up cap has a planar body (30) forming a plane top surface (300). Several holes (302, 303, 309) are defined in the planar body. When the pick up cap is engagingly mounted onto a top portion of the connector, the holes are in communication with a window (258) of the clip. A vacuum suction device can engage the top surface of the pick up cap to move the connector assembly to a desired location on a PCB. When curing adhesive film at high temperature, heated air can flow through the holes to a bottom portion of the connector. Reliable electrical connection between the contacts of the connector and the metal contact pads of the PCB is subsequently produced in a wave solder machine or drag soldering equipment.
