Abstract
Each IDCC header pin is comprised of an upper section, a pin barb section, and a lower section. Each IDCC header pin has at least a first pin barb on its pin barb section, to allow it to be anchored and retained into a housing. The upper section of each IDCC header pin also has a blade to contact a wire and displace the insulation thereof. The lower section of the pins has an associated compliant retention feature which allows the IDCC header pin to be retained into respective holes in a PCB. A dual contact bent IDCC header pin can include two upper sections which each have a blade and create a dual contact with a wire, and another embodiment can have a two-thickness upper section.
