Embodiment Construction

[0079] Figure 1-8 Components of a coaxial version of a modular connector assembly according to a first embodiment of the invention are shown.

[0080] figure 1 A ground terminal 10 is shown which is stamped and formed from metal and has a shield plate 12 with four securing holes 14 for receiving complementary pegs. Furthermore, on the front edge 10a, the ground terminal 10 has five spring arm portions 16a-16e, each spring arm portion having a contact portion 18a-18e at a distance from the shield plate 12.

[0081] Each contact portion 18a-18e has a raised circular front contact 20a-20e, and a raised circular rear contact 22a-22e.

[0082] Also, three solder pins 24a-24c are provided on the bottom surface 12b of the shield plate 12 so as to be in contact with the circuit board.

[0083] Also, as shown, the complementary mating ground terminals 30a-30e have an L-shaped cross-section, one mating ground terminal being associated with a corresponding arm portion of the ground t...

Abstract

The present invention relates to an electrical connector with a plurality of contact ground terminals, the purpose of which is to simultaneously provide ESD performance with good RF characteristics. According to the present invention, the electrical connector has an insulating housing, a plurality of signal terminals disposed in the housing, at least one grounding terminal having a first contact portion and a first spring arm portion, the first contact portion having at least one first contact portion The first and second contacts are connected mechanically. The mechanical connection is achieved in particular by an arrangement on the same arm part and ensures that in the fully mated final position, the rear contacts are closed and the front contacts are opened.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electrical connector with grounding terminals, in general, to a connector assembly and a method for assembling the connector assembly, and in particular to an electrical connector with multi-contact grounding terminals. Background technique [0002] Connectors with multiple signal terminals are typically used for connection to complex circuit boards, in which case the connectors may have a modular structure in order to achieve a high degree of variability. Such connectors are used, for example, in service boxes to connect a large motherboard to multiple parallel circuit boards. [0003] Especially in the case of electrical connectors such as these, there is always a need to increase the number of terminals in each connector and to reduce the size of the connectors. However, these goals are in part at odds with typical signal frequencies in the multi-GHz range. [0004] A modular connector with metal brackets is kno...
