<p>A deformable pin electrical connector designed to be inserted into several plated through-holes in printed circuit boards to electrically and mechanically connect two or more printed circuit boards (PCBs), for example a single pin that is both electrically and mechanically connected to two PCBs and extends through a plated through-hole of an intermediate PCB without establishing any electrical or mechanical contact with the intermediate PCB. The pin has at least two compliant sections each for press fitting into a plated through-hole in a PCB or the like, each compliant section having a different size diameter. Specifically, the top compliant section is the smallest, the bottom compliant section is the largest in diameter, and the remaining compliant sections gradually increase in size as they are located from the tip to the base of the pin. <IMAGE></p> |
