SOLDERED ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS MOUNTED SOLELY ON THE TOP SURFACE OF A PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD

摘要

An electrical connector is securable to a top surface of a printed circuit where other electronic components are mounted. The electrical connector has one or more contact legs that are insertable through apertures in the printed circuit board from the top surface and extending through the bottom surface. A bottom portion of the contact legs may engage with a larger electrical system. The top portion of the contact legs include a shoulder and an anchor pin that mechanically assist in securing the electrical connector to the printed circuit board.
