ABSTRACT:
Compliant connector pins for interfering force fit insertion in plated through holes of printed circuit boards are formed as elongated segments of wire stock with chamfered ends, with a stamped central board-engaging portion having a central web and a pair of lateral wing flanges extending sidewise in both directions from one edge of the central web, each wing flange being curved toward the other, opposite edge of the web, thus providing the board-engaging portion of each pin with a cross-section in the shape of the lower case Greek letter epsilon. The ends of the curved wing flanges are stamped inwardly to provide the central board-engaging portion with tapered ends, facilitating force fit insertion of the pins in holes in printed circuit boards.
