A compressible contact pin. The contact pin includes a first contact element and a second contact element. A compressible member is coupled between the first contact element and the second contact element to compress when one or more external forces are applied between the first contact element and the second contact element. In addition, the compressible member maintains a separation distance between the first and second contact elements when no external forces are applied. A plurality of conductive particles is bounded by the compressible member to form an electrical connection between the first contact element and the second contact element. The conductive particles are configured to compress with one another when the compressible member is compressed.
