Abstract:
A socket connector, for electrically connecting an IC package and a printed circuit board, comprises a base having a plurality of through holes, a cover mounted on the base and having a top plate, a plurality of wire-shape contacts bent from a metal haulm and an adapter assembled below the base. The contact has a contacting portion inserting into the top plate of the cover, a tail retained to the base and an elastic center portion connecting the contacting portion and the tail, the center portion is located between the base and the top plate of the cover. The adapter receives the tails of the contacts and has a plurality of exposed solder balls electrically connecting the tails.
Abstract:
An electrical assembly (100) includes an IC package (1), a CPU connector and a heat sink (14). The IC package comprises a substrate (11), a die (12) generating heat and located on the substrate and having an upper surface (123), a lower surface and a pair of side walls (121) and end walls (122) connecting the upper surface and the lower surface, and a load distributor frame (13) surrounding side walls (121) and end walls (122) of the die and having a top surface (131), a bottom surface attached on the substrate, an inner surface (133) and an outer surface (134). The load distributor is distant to the die.
Abstract:
A power interconnection system is provided including a printed circuit board (10), a voltage regulator package (30), and an electrical connection socket (20) adapted for receiving a chip package (40) therein. The electrical socket and the voltage regulator package are mounted and electrically coupled to opposite surfaces of the printed circuit board. Thus, the voltage regulator package and the chip package are held in a substantially opposed relationship relative to the printed circuit board after the chip package is mounted onto the socket. Therefore, with such configuration, a lower impedance connection is achieved between the chip package and the voltage regulator package in comparison with the conventional configuration.
Abstract:
An electrical socket for supporting an integrated circuit chip on a circuit board mainly includes a dielectric base, a number of conductive contacts retained in the base, a cover and an actuation member for movably attaching to the cover with respect to the base. The actuation member includes a cam shaft whose one end has a step-shaped face and forms an upper portion and a lower portion. The base defines a receiving hole for receiving the end of the cam shaft. The receiving hole has a step-shaped mating face forming an upper portion and a lower portion.
Abstract:
An electrical connector for interconnecting a daughter card to a mother board comprises a dielectric housing having a longitudinally elongated slot and a latch cavity. The housing carries a plurality of contacts which are engageable with contact pads on the daughter card when the daughter card is inserted into the slot in a first position and pivoted through an angle to a second position. A latch member which is attached to the housing has a latch tab engageable behind the daughter card to maintain the daughter card in the second position. The latch member has first and second beams. The first beam has a mounting portion which is stabilized in the latch cavity against longitudinal and lateral movement, and the second beam has a locking tab that is engaged with the housing to secure the latch member against withdrawal from the housing.
Abstract:
A socket adapted for electrically connecting an IC package and a PCB, comprising: a body mounted on the PCB for electrically connecting the IC package, a holder mounted on the PCB and beside the body and a clip for retaining the IC package in the body. The clip has two hook portions by which the clip pivotally assembles to the holder. The hook portion has an arched portion and a tab extending from the arched portion, the tab can abut against the holder to prevent the clip from over-rotation.
Abstract:
An electrical connector assembly (100) comprising a substrate (6), an electrical connector mounted onto the upper surface (60) of the substrate (6) and comprising an insulative housing (8) with a plurality of contacts (9) and a load plate (1) pivotally mounted onto the substrate (6) adjacent to the insulative housing (8) and substantially covering the insulative housing (8), a reinforcing member (5) assembled to the lower surface of the substrate (6) and an interlocking cam (22) rotationally mounted on a free end of the load plate (1), and extending through the substrate (6) to interlock to the reinforcing member (5) at a first position in which the load plate (1) is pressed toward the insulative housing (8), and rotated to a second position in which the load plate (1) is free to move away from the insulative housing (8). The rotatable cam (22) includes a recess (222) that when interlocked with a projecting member (5211) extending into a hole (521) in a back plate (52) serves to fasten the load plate (1) in closed position.

Abstract:
An electrical connector includes an insulative housing defining a number of passageways and a plurality of electrical contacts received in corresponding passageways of the insulative housing. Each contact is formed with a base portion, a solder portion bended from a bottom edge of the base portion, a spring portion and a connecting portion linking the base portion and the spring portion. The spring portion has a tip portion at a top end thereof, which is twisted and protrudes out of the insulative housing.
