Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing with a number of through holes extending therethrough, a number of contacts assembled to the insulative housing, and a number of solder balls disposed in the though holes and each is clasped by the tail and insulative housing. Each contact includes a vertical base portion secured to a first side of the through hole, a contact engaging arm extending from a top end of the base portion, and a solder portion extending from a bottom end of the base portion. The solder portion has a wave arrangement below the base portion and projecting from the base portion to a second side of the through hole which opposites to said first side, and a tail extending downwardly from the wave arrangement and capable of moving from the first side to the second side.
Abstract:
A socket connector for receiving an electronic device includes an insulative housing with sidewalls extending upwardly and a plurality of contacts retained in the insulative housing. The sidewalls define a receiving space for the electronic device. At least one side wall is provided with a protrusion. An elastic positioning member is mounted within the protrusion and has an engaging section extending into the receiving space.
Abstract:
A socket connector (1), used for receiving a CPU (central processing unit), includes an insulative housing (11) defining a plurality of passageways (113), a plurality of electrical contacts (14) received in the passageways, a metallic reinforcing plate (10) receiving the insulative housing, a cover member (12) pivotally mounted to the reinforcing plate, and a lever (13) attached to the reinforcing plate, pivotally driving the cover member to move toward the insulative housing. The lever rotates along a same direction as the cover member.
Abstract:
A contact includes a base portion having an upper end and a lower end opposite to the upper end, a first spring arm extending obliquely and upwardly from the upper end of the base portion, and a second spring arm extending obliquely and upwardly from the lower end of the base portion and towards the first spring arm, wherein the second spring arm locates under the first spring arm, a supporting portion is defined on a distal end of the second spring arm and slides along the first spring arm to support the first spring arm when the first spring arm is pressed down by an electronic component.
Abstract:
An electrical connector assembly includes a printed circuit board, a socket connector assembled on the printed circuit board and a chip module seating on the insulative socket. The socket connector assembly has an insulating socket having a plurality of terminals received therein, a cover located on the insulating housing and three retention members secured to the printed circuit board and mating with the cover. The cover is attached to two of the retention members and capable of linear and rotational movements with regarding to said retention members so that the cover presses the chip module and is secured by another retention member.
Abstract:
A socket connector includes a housing having a base and a plurality of sidewalls extending upwardly from the base. The base and the sidewalls define a receiving cavity for receiving an electronic package. A plurality of carbon nanotube contacts for signal transmission and a plurality of metallic contacts for power transmission are mounted within the housing respectively.
Abstract:
An electrical connection system for an optoelectronic socket comprises an optoelectronic socket (1), an OE package (2) assembled to the optoelectronic socket (1), and a circuit board (4). The optoelectronic socket (1) comprises a plurality of passageways (104) embedded with an optical member (12) respectively, and a number of electrical contacts. The OE package (2) comprises a plurality of lenses (20) located at bottom portion thereof and a plurality of electrical pads (22) located at peripheral of the bottom portion. Bottom end of the lens (20) of the OE package (2) are received in the passageway (104) and the electrical pads (22) contact with the electrical contacts (14). The optical member (12) is received in recess on upper face of the circuit board (4) and connects with a waveguide (40) positioned in the recess. The electrical contact is soldered to the circuit board.
