  • Dual thickness double-ended male blade terminal
    Patent number: 9331413
    Abstract: A printed circuit board (PCB) assembly having a double-ended male blade electrical terminal is presented. The double-ended terminal has a first blade with a substantially uniform first thickness and a second blade opposite the first blade that has an embossed mesial region providing a substantially uniform second thickness, wherein the effective thickness of the second blade is greater than the thickness of the first blade. The terminal may be used in an electrical center of a motor vehicle to interconnect a female socket in a vehicle wiring harness to an electronic device, such as a fuse or relay, having a socket terminal that is mounted on the PCB. A method of manufacturing such as double ended-terminal is also presented.
