ABSTRACT:
A compliant electrical connector for press-fit connection in a plated through-hole in a printed circuit board. The connector is stamped with a notch, and has a press-in section with a trapezoidal cross-section, with the width of an upper surface with the notch being longer than that of lower surface. The connector includes a coupling section, smoothly connects the press-in section and a lead-in section, and a shoulder which assists in positioning the connector into the through-hole. The connector can be simply manufactured and miniaturized, and is suitable for use with high density printed circuits with high density, and compliance can be guaranteed even in a case where the inner diameter of the through-hole is small.
