Abstract
An electrical connector assembly includes a first insulative housing (12) which defines a plurality of first passages (14) extending therethrough for receiving corresponding electrical conductive members (22). The first insulative housing (12) also defines a corresponding number of apertures (42) thereof for receiving electrical filtering components (30), such as a TVS chip, and each apertures (42) is parallel to and communicates with one side of the first passage (14). A second insulative housing (16) defines a plurality of second passages (38) corresponding to the first passages (14) of the first insulative housing (12) for receiving the same conductive members (22), and also defines a corresponding number of cavities (40) thereof for receiving conductive bridge members (34). Each conductive bridge member (34) is dimensioned for fixedly abutting against the filtering component (30) and being clipped (48) by the intermediate contact region (28) of conductive member (22) without welding or bonding to make the communication between the electrical filtering component ( 30) and the conductive member (22). At the same time each conductive bridge member (34) provides a means for preventing the transference of torsional forces or axial movement from the conductive member (22) to the electrical filtering component (30).
