ABSTRACT:
A terminal has a soldering portion, a body portion, a resilient arm portion, a first fulcrum and a pivot boss. The body portion is formed on the soldering portion. The resilient arm portion is formed on the body portion, is capable of pivoting and has a proximal end, a distal contacting portion and a distal section. The first fulcrum is defined between the body portion and the resilient arm portion and allows the resilient arm portion to pivot around the first fulcrum. The pivot boss serves as a second fulcrum, is formed on the resilient arm portion between the proximal end and the distal contacting portion, is adjacent to the distal section and selectively pivots the distal section. With the pivot boss, the terminal presents excellent resilient force.
