CONTACT PIN FOR AN ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT

摘要

A contact pin for an electronic circuit is described which has at least one ceramic circuit carrier, the circuit carrier having at least on feedthrough for accommodating the contact pin and the circuit carrier having electrical contact surfaces in the area of the feedthrough for accommodating the contact pin, and the contact pin being only elastically deformed when inserted into the feedthrough. The contact pin may have an electrical contact spring in the form of an insertion stop on the insertion side in addition to or instead of one of the radial bulges, the contact spring being generally designed in the shape of a circular sector and pressing onto the circuit carrier using the outer surface of the circular sector as a stop surface or having a barbed hook on the end which is inserted through the feedthrough in the circuit carrier, the barbed hook preventing the contact pin from sliding back after the contact pin has been inserted through the feedthrough.
