ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR HAVING IMPROVED TERMINAL CONFIGURATION

摘要

An electrical connector (70) comprises a first linear array of electrical terminals extending along a first direction. The first linear array comprises a first signal pair (10) and a first ground terminal (74). A second linear array of electrical terminals extends along the first direction and is positioned adjacent to the first linear array. The second linear array comprises a second differential signal pair (10) and a second ground terminal (74). The first differential signal pair is offset from the second differential signal pair. Each electrical terminal of the first differential signal pair comprises a compliant portion having a first length (dl), and the first ground terminal comprises a compliant portion having a second length (d2), wherein the second length is greater than the first length.
