  • Electrical connector for plated-through holes
    Patent number: 4381134
    Abstract: An electrical connector (20) adapted for engagement with a plated-through hole (13) in a printed circuit board (10) is disclosed. This connector includes first and second generally squared-shaped posts (21,22) for receiving electrically conductive elements. Intermediate these first and second posts is a compliant section (23,24,25,26) for producing an interference coupling between the connector and the plated-through hole. Juxtaposed the compliant section and intermediate and located between it and the first post is a broaching section (30) for conditioning the plated-through hole prior to engagement of the compliant section with the plated-through hole.
