Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of connectors, and in particular relates to a high-density connector. Background Art

[0002] LGA connectors (Land Grid Array connectors) are mostly used for CPU chip module connections. The traditional structure of LGA connectors is that the terminal contact point at the upper end of the metal terminal contacts the contact surface of the CPU chip module, and the welding point at the lower end of the metal terminal is welded to the PCB motherboard pad through a solder ball. However, high-density welding points may have poor welding, which may lead to abnormal circuit breaking.

[0003] In order to solve the problem of poor welding, the LGA type connector has been improved. The welding point at the bottom of the metal terminal is not welded to the PCB main board pad through the solder ball, but is in contact with the contact surface of the PCB like the terminal contact point at the top of the metal terminal, and the contact conduction is replaced by welding conduction. In this way, the metal terminal of the LGA type connector does not need to be welded, which can reduce the abnormal circuit breakage caused by poor welding of high-density welding points. However, the improved LGA type connector is prone to warping. Therefore, it needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
