ABSTRACT:
A connector, for example an LGA connector to be used in coupling a circuit board to a chip or a multi-chip module, includes an insulating carrier with a through-holes corresponding to the connections to be made above and below the carrier, and contacts in the through-holes. The contacts include wadded-wire wads that protrude above and below the carrier to make contact with the chip or circuit board, but each also includes a solid conductive member that extends over a major portion of the length of the through-hole and is in electro-mechanical connection with the wadded-wire wad or wads in the hole at numerous points along the length of the through-hole. The solid conductive member includes barbs or projections that penetrate the wadded wire. The solid conductive members thus provide a low-resistance parallel path and can also hold the wadded-wire wad or wads in place. A method of making and system are also disclosed.
