Serial ATA connector with compliant contact

摘要

A Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) connector (400) for being mounted to a printed circuit board (PCB) (200) includes an insulative housing (70) and a plurality of compliant contacts (80). The housing has a pair of side walls (700), a pair of end walls (701), and a bottom wall (702) which together defining a mating space (703), an L-shaped tongue extending from the bottom wall into the mating space. Each contact having an engaging portion (802) retained in the L-shaped tongue and a press-fit tail (803) vertically extending beyond the bottom wall adapted for being mounted to the PCB. The housing further comprises a pair of pegs (706) is integrally formed on the bottom wall of the housing adapted for guiding the press-fit tails mounted into the PCB without damaged.
