ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector is provided for surface mounting on a printed circuit board and includes a dielectric housing having a mating face and a surface mounting face. The mating face includes a mating cavity. The surface mounting face includes a terminal-receiving passageway communicating with the cavity. A terminal is mounted on the housing, the terminal being stamped and formed of sheet metal material in a T-shaped configuration defining a trunk portion and a cross portion. The trunk portion extends through the passageway and projects into the mating cavity of the housing to provide a male terminal pin therein. The cross portion is exposed at the surface mounting face of the housing for contacting a circuit trace on the printed circuit board.
