ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector includes a dielectric housing having a mounting face adapted for surface mounting on a printed circuit board. A conductive terminal is mounted on the housing and includes a board contact portion for engagement with a circuit trace on the printed circuit board and a spring contact portion for engagement with a contact element of a mating connector component. The board contact portion is fixed at the mounting face of the housing and is adapted to engage the circuit trace on the printed circuit board when the contact portion is moved in a direction generally perpendicular to the board. The spring contact portion of the terminal projects from a side of the housing and is adapted to engage the contact element of the mating connector component when the contact element is moved in a direction generally parallel to the board.
