Embodiment Construction

[0019] In one aspect, an electrical contact includes a base including a first side edge and a second side edge, and a front edge extending between the first side edge and the second side edge. At least one contact arm extends from the front edge of the base to make electrical contact with a contact pad. Each of the first and second side edges defines one or more protrusions configured to engage an interior portion of the connector housing to secure the electrical contacts within the connector housing. The one or more protrusions on the first side edge are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the one or more protrusions on the second side edge such that the one or more protrusions on the first side edge A respective center of each of them is misaligned with a respective center of each of the one or more protrusions on the second side edge.

[0020] In a second aspect, an electrical connector assembly includes a first connector and a second connector configured to mate to th...

Abstract

An electrical contact includes a base including a first side edge and a second side edge, and a front edge extending between the first side edge and the second side edge. At least one contact arm extends from the front edge of the base to make electrical contact with the contact pad. Each of the first side edge and the second side edge defines one or more protrusions configured to engage an interior portion of the connector housing to secure the electrical contacts within the connector housing. The one or more protrusions on the first side edge are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the one or more protrusions on the second side edge such that each of the one or more protrusions on the first side edge corresponds to The center of each of the one or more protrusions on the second side edge is not aligned with the corresponding center of each.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to US Provisional Application No. 62 / 348,651, filed June 10, 2016, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. technical field [0002] The present invention generally relates to electrical connectors. More specifically, the present invention relates to connectors having an asymmetric base. Background technique [0003] Some electrical systems include multiple electrical modules interconnected to each other through a backplane circuit board. The connector on the module facilitates plugging the module into a complementary connector on the backplane. [0004] Each connector can be configured to couple one or more signals between the electrical module and the backplane. The signals transmitted via the connectors may be relatively high frequency signals. The problem to be solved is that special care must be taken in the construction of the connector to minimize degradation of any signal passing through ...
