Abstract: An electronic device includes a printed circuit board (PCB) including a planar surface conductor, e.g. such as a microstrip transmission line or coplanar transmission waveguide. A surface mount connector portion is mounted to the PCB and includes an electrically conductive header having a cylindrical bore extending therethrough and aligned normal to the PCB, the electrically conductive header also having a radially extending main recess in a bottom end thereof in communication with the cylindrical bore. An electrically conductive pin extends through the main recess and has a first end coupled to the planar surface conductor, a second end within the cylindrical bore and a bend therebetween. A dielectric is in the main recess between the pin and adjacent portions of the electrically conductive header, and an interconnect is within the cylindrical bore and includes a center conductive channel to receive the second end of the pin.
