ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an electrical connector for electrical connecting an IC package having a plurality of pins to a PCB. The electrical connector comprises a base defining a plurality of passageways, a plurality of contacts received in the passageways, and a cover moveable relative to the base from a first position to a second position. The cover defines a plurality of through holes corresponding the passageway. The contacts each have a resilient arm. During movement of the cover from the first position to the second position, pins of the IC package will compress the resilient arms of the contacts along a direction and the resilient will exert a normal force on the pins, thus ensuring proper connection between the resilient arm and the pins; wherein direction of the normal force is opposite to the direction of the pins moving.
