A surface mount electrical connector assembly is provided for electrically connecting a plurality of terminals of an electrical connector to circuit traces on a printed circuit board. The terminals are mounted on a dielectric housing of the connector and have contact ends exposed exteriorly on one side of the housing. A flexible circuit sheet is mounted on the side of the housing, with conductive circuit paths being electrically terminated to the contact ends of the terminals. The flexible circuit sheet has an edge for surface engaging the printed circuit board, with contact pads at the edge for electrical termination to the circuit traces on the printed circuit board.

An electrical terminal is interposed between first and second opposing conductive surfaces. The terminal includes an intermediate support portion and first and second spring contact portions projecting from the intermediate support portion for respectively engaging the first and second opposing conductive surfaces. Complementary interengaging latches are provided between at least one of the first and second spring contact portions and the intermediate portion for holding the one spring contact portion out of engagement with the respective conductive surface. The electrical terminal is disclosed mounted within a connector housing by a floating mount to afford limited movement of the terminal relative to the connector housing.

An electrical terminal is provided for insulation displacement termination of an electrical wire having a conductor core surrounded by an insulating sleeve. The terminal includes a forward mating end for engaging a complementary terminal and a rear terminating end for terminating the electrical wire. The rear terminating end includes at least a forward insulation displacement section, a forward strain relief section behind the forward insulation displacement section, a rear insulation displacement section behind the forward strain relief section, and a rear strain relief section behind the rear insulation displacement section. The rear terminating end of the terminal is generally U-shaped defining a bottom wall and space side walls. The strain relief sections are formed out of the spaced side walls, and the insulation displacement sections are formed out of the bottom wall.

An optic sensing assembly for detecting reflection at a target area includes a cable holding element formed as an integral, one-piece body having sockets for directly receiving nonterminated ends of a light supply fiber optic cable and a light receiving fiber optic cable. Stop portions in the sockets accurately position the fiber optic cable ends. A housing has a cavity slideably receiving the holding element and latch structures on the holding element and housing engage with one another to secure the holding element with stop portions positioned at a precise location relative to housing. A strain relief structure is effective upon engagement of the latch structures for holding fiber optic cable ends within the sockets. An aperture in the housing communicates with the cavity for permitting light transmission between the cable ends and the target area. A lens structure formed integrally in the holding element directs or focuses light along paths from the cable ends to the target area.

A shielded housing that provides a shield to a circuit board connector of the SFP-style includes a conductive body that encompasses the connector. The housing has an opening that defines an entrance of the housing through which an opposing mating connector may be inserted. The housing entrance includes one or more guide members that extend into the center of the housing and provide a guide for guiding an opposing mating connector into engagement with the circuit board connector.

A connector provides mechanical strength and impedance-conforming coupling between conductors in a cable and conductors on a circuit board. The conductors in the cable and the circuit board carry differential signals. The connector is comprised of a dielectric plug that has conductive terminals installed in it which comprise an electrical triad. A dielectric inner body has at least one triplet of three conductive terminals that extend into corresponding slots of the dielectric plug. The dielectric inner body has latching arm slots that receiving a latching arm of a mechanical coupling link member. A protective cover extends over a wire management support member and the dielectric inner body portion and at least partially over the dielectric plug member. The protective cover has retention openings that engage an actuator leg of a latching member. The protective cover also has at least one bias leg recess, for receiving a bias leg of the latching member. A latching member has bias legs that extend into the bias leg passages of the dielectric plug member. The latching member locks the dielectric plug member, the dielectric inner body and the protective cover together.

Disclosed is a shielded receptacle assembly mateable with a plug connector having an external metallic shield. The connector assembly includes an insulating receptacle housing having a mating edge with a plug-receiving cavity extending into the housing from the mating edge. An end wall opposes the mating edge and a plurality of sidewalls are joined with the end wall to define plug receiving cavity. Housing terminals are mounted in the receptacle housing for mating with corresponding plug terminals.An integral stamped metallic conductive shield is mounted on the outside of the receptacle housing, and includes reversely bent shield engaging cantilever fingers for mating with the external plug shield. The housing includes outwardly projecting shield mounting studs electrically formed on two opposing sidewalls. Slots formed in corresponding shield sidewalls slidingly receive and engage the studs during assembly of the shield and housing members. Accurate alignment between the shield and housing is provided, while preventing outward bowing of the shield away from the housing sidewalls both before and after mating with a plug assembly.

A solderless, generally elongated, circuit board conductor adapted to be received and held in a plated-through hole formed in the circuit board in order to provide an electrical connection between a conductive plating deposited on the interior surface of the hole of another circuit element. The conductor includes a compliant section which is adapted to be received in the hole in contact with the plating and allowing selective insertion and removal of the conductor into and out of the hole. The compliant section generally comprises a plate section with a resilient finger struck out therefrom. The finger has an apex portion to contact the plating of the hole.Also disclosed is a connector assembly which is selectively mountable on a circuit board and which includes an insulative base portion with a plurality of solderless elongated electrical terminals mounted therein. Each terminal has a lower compliant section of the type described above which is adapted to be received in plated-through holes formed in the board in contact with plating on the interior surface thereof. An insertion tool is provided that simultaneously cooperates with the terminals and base portion for supporting the terminals in the base portion when the assembly is mounted in said board.
