Abstract

A terminal pin, having a compressed portion the cross section of which is roughly V-shaped, has a pair of arms and a pair of convex contact edges with a concave trail between the convex contact edges. The pair of arms have a uniform thickness and are deformed inwardly when pressed into a through hole defined in a PCB. After being pressed into the through hole, the compressed portion contacts the internal surface of the through hole at four locations, namely, at a pair of external surfaces provided at the ends of the pair of arms and the pair of convex contact edges.
