An electrical power connector includes a housing having channels formed in the housing from a mounting end to a mating end. The channels are configured to receive a first and second blade terminal having a flat contact with a wall disposed between the blade terminals. Projections are formed on the wall and the projections support the terminals while forming passages that allow air flow between the wall and the blade terminal in the channel.

The present disclosure provides a conductive terminal and an electrical connector assembly. The conductive terminal comprises: a base unit, a contacting unit, a connecting piece and a tail unit. The connecting piece connects the base unit and the contacting unit. The base unit comprises a plate portion extending along a front-rear direction. The contacting unit faces the plate portion, is spaced apart from the plate portion and comprises a plate-shaped contacting portion and an elastic contacting portion positioned behind the plate-shaped contacting portion. The tail unit is connected to a rear end of the plate portion. In the electrical connector assembly, in every two mated conductive terminals between the first connector and the second connector, the elastic contacting portion of one conductive terminal contacts the plate-shaped contacting portion of the other conductive terminal and the elastic contacting portion of the other conductive terminal contacts the plate-shaped contacting portion of the one conductive terminal, so that two contacting regions are formed between the every two mated conductive terminal.

Terminal and connector assembly

An electric connector includes a first pair of differential signal terminals, a second pair of differential signal terminals, a first ground terminal, a second ground terminal and a third ground terminal. The first signal terminal and the second signal terminal of the first pair of differential signal terminals and the third signal terminal and the fourth signal terminal of the second pair of differential signal terminals are arranged in a first direction in sequence. The pins of the first pair of differential signal terminals are staggered in a second direction transverse to the first direction and the second pair of differential signal terminals are staggered in a second direction transverse to the first direction. The electric connector according to the disclosure can reduce electromagnetic radiation.

An electrical connector for receiving a daughter card having a plurality of conductive surfaces is described. The electrical connector has a socket with an elongated slot for receiving the daughter card. The slot has electrical terminals for engaging the plurality of conductive surfaces on the daughter card and for electrically connecting the daughter card to the connector. A latch at each end of the elongated slot secures the daughter card to the connector. The latch includes a pair of inwardly directed opposing securing hooks and a pair of unlocking members.
