Abstract
An electrical connector of the present invention comprises an elongate housing having a pair of side walls, a central wall between the side walls defining a number of chambers in opposite rows therealong, and a pair of slots respectively defined between the side walls and the central wall, and a number of contacts received in the chambers. The contacts each have a base, an arcuate beam depending upwardly from the base, and an engaging beam initially continuing upwardly from the arcuate beam. The engaging beam then bends twice to form a lower curved portion and an upper curved portion. Increasing bends of the top curved portion lessens the yielding of the contact. The lower curved portion reduces normal force provided by the connector. Moreover, the contact is secured by interferentially fitting with a side wall and the central wall of the housing.
