ABSTRACT:
A land grid array socket contact has a resilient contact that extends parallel to a base plate and is attached to at least one side walls of the base plate by a curved section angled approximately180degrees from the at least one side wall. The resilient contact has a free end for contacting a contact pad. A board terminal extends from a lower end of the base plate for connection to a circuit board. In another embodiment, the land grid array socket contact has a resilient contact extending from an upper end of a base plate. The resilient contact has an elongated slit substantially in a center of the resilient contact with respect to a direction of width and a free end for contacting a contact pad. A board terminal extends from a lower end of the base plate for connection to a circuit board.
