Abstract: In an electronic circuit module, an array of male connectors (41, 46) are arranged on a ceramic substrate (40) to establish contact with external female connectors (20) and an array of LSI packages (5) is provided. Conductive layers (43) of power distribution pattern are embedded in the substrate and are coupled to the male connectors (41). Each LSI package includes a conductive housing (52), an LSI chip (50) secured thereto in a thermally conductive relationship and a base plate (51) which establishes source/ground current conduction paths between the chip and the housing and drain/source current conduction paths between the chip and appropriate layers of the ceramic substrate. An array of conductive springs (68) are supported by a lattice structure (60, 64) to establish a pressure contact with the housing of successive LSI packages to allow power currents to be supplied from an external source voltage terminal to all LSI packages.

Abstract: For facilitating an electrical connection of a conductive connection pin (7) to a conductive contact (11) held to a base insulator (13), an electrical connector includes a preload pin (23) which is for carrying out beforehand displacement of a contact portion (21) of the conductive contact at a first position. The preload pin is held to a slider (19) which is placed between the base insulator and a cover insulator (17) and which is movable in a predetermined direction. The cover insulator and the slider have guide and elongated holes (15, 25), respectively, for passing the connection pin therethrough. The elongated hole is greater than the connection pin in a size of the predetermined direction. Therefore, it is possible without movement of the connection pin to move the preload pin in the predetermined direction to a second position at which the preload pin does not carry out the displacement of the contact portion.

Abstract: A top housing, which has formed therein arrays of first housing chambers and first pin insertion holes respectively communicating therewith, and a bottom housing, which has formed therein arrays of second housing chambers and second pin insertion holes respectively communicating therewith, are assembled together so that the corresponding first and second housing chambers intercommunicate. A socket contactor is housed across the corresponding first and second housing chambers. The top and bottom housings are held together by a frame so that they are slidable relative to each other. Terminal pins of an IC are inserted into the first housing chambers through the first pin insertion holes and pin conductors of a printed board are inserted into the second housing chambers through the second pin insertion holes. By sliding the top and bottom housings relative to each other, each socket contactor is bent, and by its spring force, the socket contactor is urged against the terminal pin and the pin conductor.

Abstract: For electrically connecting a conductive terminal member (13) to an electric circuit board (12), an electrical connector includes a contact member (30) which comprises a terminal pin element (31) and a mating contact element (32) as individual parts. The terminal pin element is inserted into a through hole (14) and secured to the electric circuit board by soldering. The mating contact element is mated with the terminal pin element within an insulator housing (16) so that it is possible to correct position error of a contact portion (42) of the mating contact element. The conductive terminal member is inserted into the insulator housing and is then moved by a driving member (17) which is slidable along the insulator housing. Therefore, the conductive terminal member is brought into contact with a contract portion of the mating contact element. As a result, electrical connection is reliably made between the terminal member and an electrical circuit on the electric circuit board.
