Patent attributes
An electrical connector (1) includes an insulative housing (30), and a multiplicity of terminals (10) received in the housing. Each terminal comprises a retaining portion (12), a soldering portion (18) extending from a bottom end of the retaining portion, and a spring portion (13) extending slantingly upwardly from a top end of the retaining portion. The spring portion comprises a first spring arm (14) extending slantingly upwardly from the top end of the retaining portion, and a second spring arm (16) extending slanting upwardly from a top end of the first spring arm an being directly above the first spring arm. A contacting portion (162) is defined at a distal end of the second spring arm. The first and second spring arms respective can resiliently deform in a different direction to provide resilient force to the contacting portion, and the contacting portion therefore engages with the CPU with minimal wiping.
