ABSTRACT:
A compliant electrical connector [has a pin with edges to grip the boundary of a hole, the pin having at least one groove sunk in the side thereof so that the pin forms a flexure that flexes to reduce the cross sectional area of the groove as the pin is inserted into the hole.] pin has an elongated body with laterally oppositely facing walls for engaging electrical structure forming a hole into which the pin is pressed, the pin having compliant body extent between such walls and including a flexure in yieldable flexed condition, the flexure including a spring for developing outwardly opposing forces for forcing the laterally oppositely facing walls into contact with the structure forming the hole. An electrical connection is thereby provided from the pin and the structure forming the hole.
