ABSTRACT:
A compression connector assembly for interconnecting microelectronic circuit and cable assemblies, which provides shielding and characteristic impedance control, and is configurable in high-density multi-connector arrays. In a first embodiment, the connector includes a bare-wire loop contact element rigidly maintained within a cylindrical sleeve closely received within a cylindrical receptacle of a conductive housing. In a second embodiment, the connector includes a bare-wire loop contact element closely received within a cylindrical receptacle of an insulating housing. In a third embodiment, the connector includes a contact element formed from two bare-wire segments bonded together and disposed within a cylindrical sleeve closely received within a cylindrical receptacle of a conductive housing. In a fourth embodiment, the connector includes a contact element formed from two bare-wire segments bonded together and closely received within a cylindrical receptacle of an insulating housing. In each embodiment, connector contact elements are either attached to the sleeve or housing, or float and are longitudinally movable.
