ABSTRACT:
A filter connector comprises a front insulator shaped to house a monolithic capacitor within a slot bordered by rows of contact cavities. A thin metallic plate, or spring array, is aligned with the front insulator so that a plurality of spring tabs on the spring array project inwardly into the insulator slot and each of a plurality of spring tines on the spring array project inwardly into a correspondingly aligned contact cavity. The capacitor is then inserted into the slot so that external electrodes thereon contact a spring tab aligned therewith. A contact pin is then inserted into a contact cavity, causing the spring tine to deflect and make contact. A rear insulator is then aligned with the spring array to sandwich the spring array between the front and rear insulators. The rear insulator breaks portions of the spring array and thereby isolates each spring of the array.
