The present invention provides a terminal pin for connecting a DC-DC power converter module or the like to a PCB. The pin has improved current carrying capabilities by having a diameter over most of its length that is larger than the ends that are connected to either the module or PCB. The larger diameter also provides for improved heat flow from the power converter module to the PCB. A smaller diameter portion near the PCB board provides for improved flow of solder between the pin and the PCB. A stand-off member is also provided to maintain the module and PCB at a predetermined stand-off distance.
