Abstract
This disclosure relates to a socket contact (10) for a printed circuit board (30), wherein the socket contact is configured to receive contact pins (20). The socket contact comprises a planar structure (11), a first circular through-opening (12) located at the center of the planar structure (11), and a plurality of through-slits (13) extending outward from the first circular through-opening (12) and forming a plurality of tongues (15) of the planar structure (11). The tongues extend radially toward the first circular through-opening (12), and each slit (13) extends radially outward toward a second circular through-opening (14). The second circular through-opening has a diameter (d2) smaller than the diameter (d1) of the first circular through-opening (12) but larger than the width (w) of the corresponding slit (13). This disclosure relates to a method (200) for positioning the socket contact (10) in contact with contact pins.
