Title:
【発明の名称】多機能電子コネクタ
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2001509309
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
In a multifunction electronic connector, spring loaded contacts are eliminated in favor of conductive bonds or terminations using solder, conductive adhesive, conductive epoxy or the like. Electronic components, which may comprise capacitors, resistors, inductors, varistor components or other passive or active components or combinations thereof, are disposed within cavities in an insulating housing so that terminals at first ends thereof are in direct contact with and are conductively bonded to a plurality of contacts disposed within apertures in the housing. At the same time, terminals at the opposite ends of the components also make direct contact with and are conductively bonded to a terminal member mounted at the bottom of the body. Where the circuit configurations of the connector require, the ends of the contacts are formed into contact tails which extend into contact with and are conductively bonded to other portions of the terminal member. The terminal member may comprise a planar substrate which is generally parallel with the contacts, and the portion thereof in contact with the lower terminals of the electronic components may comprise an electrical grounding member. Alternatively, the grounding member may comprise a separate ground plane soldered or otherwise conductively bonded to the substrate and having compliant beams extending upwardly therefrom and into contact with the lower terminals of the electronic components.
