Abstract: A terminal and a receptacle connector are provided. The terminal comprises a soldering segment, an upright arm and a bending arm. The soldering segment has a first end portion and the upright arm extends upwardly from the first end portion. The bending arm bends back and obliquely extends upwardly close to the upright arm and includes an upper bending segment and a contact segment extends upwardly from the upper bending segment. A shoulder portion is formed at each of at least one side edge of two side edges of each of at least one of the upright arm and the bending arm, the two side edges are connected with the soldering segment, the shoulder portion protrudes relative to a corresponding side edge of the soldering segment.

Abstract: A receptacle connector includes a receptacle housing and a plurality of receptacle terminals. The receptacle housing has a bottom surface, a top surface and a plurality of terminal grooves that each includes a first side wall portion, a second side wall portion and a top wall portion, and the top wall portion and the second side wall portion help define an insertion opening portion. Each receptacle terminal has a fixed segment which is fixed to the receptacle housing, an elastic segment which extends obliquely and upwardly from a top end of the fixed segment, then is folded back and extends obliquely and upwardly toward the top wall portion and a tail segment which extends toward the second side wall portion. The elastic segment has a contact portion which is positioned below the insertion opening portion and a guiding surface which is positioned below the insertion opening portion.
