ABSTRACT:
An electrical contact pin for mounting in a printed circuit board. The pin has an H-shaped contact portion cross-section which is mounted in the hole by compliant press-fit action. The H-shaped cross-section comprises four compliant pins and a crossbar. The floor of the crossbar is V-shaped and the transition between the pins and floor is rounded. The height and thickness of the fins on each side of the V-shaped floor are substantially the same, thereby minimizing or eliminating rotation of the pin during insertion into the hole.
