ABSTRACT:
Solder cup connector comprises stamped and formed terminals loaded into passages of a one-piece housing. Each terminal has a mating portion formed in a first direction from the plane of the stock, a solder cup formed in a second, opposite direction from the plane of the stock, and a transition portion crossing the axis of the terminal to align the mating portion and the solder cup. Flanges extending laterally from the transition portion bend to engage the side walls of a respective passage as a terminal is inserted therein, and further bite into the housing if withdrawal is attempted. The transition portion also serves as a barrier which prevents wicking of solder into the mating portion.
