Electrical connector having hybrid standoff

摘要

The present invention provides an electrical connector for establishing electrical connection between an IC module and a PCB. The electrical connector comprises an insulative housing and a set of electrical contacts received in the housing. The insullative housing has a mating surface and a mounting surface opposite thereto. The mating surface defines a supporting block extending upwardly thereof for supporting an IC module when said IC module is mated with the electrical connector. A reinforced element is defined in the supporting block, so as to reinforce said supporting block.
