  • Connector having improved contacts with fusible members
    Publication number: 20050287831
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a connector body, a plurality of cores and a plurality of electrically conductive contacts disposed in the cores of the connector body. Each of the contacts includes a fusible member attached thereto. Each of the fusible members includes an intermediate portion and two support members disposed on opposite sides of the intermediate portion. The support members are arranged to hang down below a tail portion of the contacts.
    Type: Application
    Filed: October 20, 2004
    Publication date: December 29, 2005
    Applicant: SAMTEC, Inc.
    Inventors: John Mongold, Stephen Koopman

  • Array connector having improved electrical characteristics and increased signal pins with decreased ground pins
    Publication number: 20050277315
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a connector body, a plurality of rows and columns of conductive pins disposed along the length direction and the width direction of the connector body so as to form an array of signal pins located in a pin field, at least two rows of ground pins arranged along at least two sides of the pin field, with no ground pins being arranged in the pin field or between adjacent signal pins. The signal pins are arranged in a stretched pitch and/or staggered configuration to minimize cross-talk and maximize signal pin density and signal-to-ground ratio.
