ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for assembly of an electronic component with two parallel rows of terminals onto a printed circuit board, the connector including an insulating block having two rows of cavities, each cavity containing a contact element introduced through an opening provided at the top of the cavity and a leg projecting at the bottom of the cavity for connection to the printed circuit board. The contact element comprises a substantially flat web portion pressing against the side of the cavity adjacent to an outer longitudinal face of the insulating block. A central part of the web portion is cut out and bent to form a contact tab extending out of the plane of the web portion. The tab is resiliently urged towards the bottom of the opposite wall of the cavity to cooperate with a male contact element which is inserted into the cavity.
