Abstract
An electrical connector having a housing and a plurality of electrical contacts. The housing has contact receiving areas with a general uniform cross-like shape. The electrical contacts are one-piece serpentine shaped spring contacts connected to the housing in the receiving areas. A center section of the contact has mounting wings that are located in lateral apertures of the cross-like shape to fixedly mount the contacts to the housing. Opposite ends of the contacts extend out of the receiving areas for contacting contact pads on parallel printed circuit boards on opposite sides of the connector.
