发明名称 Electrical connector with ground bus
摘要 An electrical connector includes a housing having a front and a rear. The housing including a slot defined through the front that is configured to receive a mating connector therein. Signal contacts are held in the housing. The signal contacts are arranged within the slot to mate with the mating connector. Ground contacts are held in the housing and interspersed among the signal contacts. The ground contacts are arranged within the slot to mate with the mating connector. A ground bus includes a base and multiple sets of projections extending from the base. Each set including at least two projections that engage the same corresponding ground contact at spaced-apart locations. The sets of projections are connected via the base to create a ground circuit between the ground contacts that are engaged by the ground bus.

主权项 1. An electrical connector comprising: a housing having a front and a rear, the housing including a slot defined through the front configured to receive a mating connector therein; signal contacts held in the housing, the signal contacts being arranged within the slot to mate with the mating connector; ground contacts held in the housing and interspersed among the signal contacts, the ground contacts being arranged within the slot to mate with the mating connector; and a ground bus that includes a base and multiple sets of projections extending from the base, each set including at least two projections that engage a same corresponding ground contact at spaced-apart locations, the sets of projections connected via the base to create a ground circuit between the ground contacts engaged by the ground bus; wherein the signal contacts and the ground contacts are arranged in an upper row above the slot and a lower row below the slot, the ground bus is a first ground bus that engages the ground contacts in the upper row, and the electrical connector further comprises a second ground bus that engages the ground contacts in the lower row, wherein the ground contacts in the upper row are longer than the ground contacts in the lower row, each set of projections of the first ground bus engaging the corresponding ground contact in the upper row at engagement locations spaced apart by a first distance, each set of projections of the second ground bus engaging the corresponding ground contact in the lower row at engagement locations spaced apart by a second distance different than the first distance.
