ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for connecting a terminal pin to a printed wiring board conductor via an electrically conductive elastomeric collar positioned about the terminal pin and pressed into a plated through hole connected to the conductor. Ridges are formed on an outer surface of the collar and a tapered lead-in is provided at one end of the collar to permit engagement with and the formation of contact areas between the collar and the plated through hole. The collar additionally may include a drive shoulder at an end opposite the end containing the tapered lead-in. Projections may be formed on the terminal pin which engage cavities formed in the inner wall of the central bore within the collar to retain the terminal pin within a collar. The collar may be of electrically conductive or electrically non-conductive material.
