ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector assembly is provided for releasable electrical connection of a high density memory module to a circuit board. An electrical connector assembly includes a base having an array of apertures extending therethrough for registration with both the contact pads of the memory module and of the circuit board. Resilient terminal assemblies are mounted in each of the apertures of the base. Each terminal assembly includes an electrically conductive terminal exposed at both ends of the terminal assembly and with a connection extending therebetween. The contacts and the connection of the terminal may be stamped and formed from a unitary strip of conductive metal. The terminal is insert molded in elastomeric material dimensioned to be frictionally retained in a corresponding aperture of the base. The dimensions of the elastomeric plug and the apertures are selected to control the amount of compression that is permissible as the electrical connector is engaged between the memory module and the circuit board.
