Patent attributes
An electrical connector for electrically connecting with a chip module, which includes: an insulating body; and multiple terminals, respectively and correspondingly accommodated in the insulating body. Each terminal has: a base portion having a vertical plane; a first arm, bending and extending upward from the base portion toward a direction away from the vertical plane; a second arm, bending and extending reversely from the first arm and crossing the vertical plane, configured to abut the chip module; and a through-slot, running through the second arm vertically, where the through-slot at least extends to a bending location between the second arm and the first arm, so that the second arm forms two branches at two opposite sides of the through-slot, and the second arm has a beam connecting the two branches, so as to reduce self-inductance of the terminal, and improve a high-frequency signal transmission capability of the electrical connector.
