ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly (10) includes a housing (24) having an inner terminal (50) with a spring biasing member (54), an outer conductive shell (14), and an electrical component (60) having electrodes (62) on ends thereof disposed in a recess (28) of the housing (24). The recess (28) is adjacent an inner surface of the shell (14) and the spring biasing member (54). The component is completely enclosed within the assembly (10) and is biased against the shell (14) with the electrodes (62) thereof in electrical engagement with the biasing member (54) and the inner surface of the shell (14). The improvement comprises a soldered connection (64) between the biasing member (54) and one of the electrodes (62) of the component (60) whereby the soldered connection assuredly maintains the position of the component (60) during the assembly process and thereafter.
