Abstract:
An electrical contact used in an electrical connector adapted for electrically connecting with an integrated circuit (IC) package and a printed circuit board is provided. Each contact comprises a base section, an upper resilient arm and a lower elastic arm extending from two opposite ends of the base section, respectively. The electrical connector comprises an insulative housing and a plurality of contacts retained in the insulative housing. The insulative housing includes a mating surface, a mounting surface, and a plurality of contact passageways passing through the mating surface and the mounting surface. The lower elastic arm of the contact at least partially projects below the mounting surface of the insulative housing. The lower elastic arm includes a first resisting portion for guiding the contact to be inserted into a via of the printed circuit board and resisting against inner wall of the via of the printed circuit board.
