ABSTRACT:
A low profile compression electrical connector, for establishing an electrical pathway between two electrical components, includes an insert and a housing. A plurality of connector arms are mounted on a base of the insert, and each connector arm has a first end and a second end. The ends are sufficiently deflectable to allow the connector to fit into a very small space. The housing of the electrical connector is formed with an aperture for receiving and stationarily orienting the base of the insert with respect to the housing. Also, clamps mounted on the housing can be used to hold first and second electrical components, such as printed circuit boards, against the housing and in contact with the ends of the connector arms. Upon engagement of the electrical components with the housing, the ends of the connector arms urge against the electrical components to establish an electrical pathway through the connector arm from the first electrical component to the second electrical component.
