Patent attributes
An electrical connector includes: an insulating body; multiple terminals, each terminal having a contact portion and at least one clamping portion forming a clamping space; and multiple solder posts, each being correspondingly placed in the clamping space. The solder post has a foundation post and a protruding portion extending upward from the foundation post. The clamping portion clamps the foundation post in the clamping space. A width of the protruding portion is smaller than a width of the foundation post. The foundation post is cylindrical. A height of the solder post is greater than a diameter of the foundation post. The solder posts are arranged more densely on the insulating body. When the electrical connector and a circuit board are together placed into a reflow oven, hot gas flows around the protruding portion more easily, and a contact area between the hot gas and the protruding portion is larger.
