ABSTRACT:
A button contact and array of button contacts are provided for surface mounting a leadless IC device to a circuit board. The button contacts of the button contact array have a substantially flat body lying in a plane and oppositedly directed contact points protruding from resiliently deflectable contact support arms of said body. The button contacts of the invention, which provide a low profile contact between surface mounted components, are suitable for high frequency applications, and particularly high frequency test and burn-in applications, and are relatively durable.
