LOW INSERTION FORCE CONNECTOR USING NON-NOBLE METAL CONTACT PLATING An electrical connector permits the use of non-noble metals by providing mechanical advantage in obtaining high contact force with low insertion force. A pin is utilized as a cantilever beam to provide high contact force. A carrier, which is activated by insertion of a printed circuit board or the like, includes a lever forming part of the electrical connection. The lever is displaced causing deflection of the pin. The lever has contact points capable of piercing non-metallic oxides, thereby forming good electrical contacts. |
