Abstract
An electrical connector includes at least a first contact element and a second contact element, wherein each of the first and second contact elements include alternating conductive materials and nonconductive materials. An insulating layer separates the first contact element and the second contact element. The insulating layer divides the first and second contact elements into dedicated contact regions and has a length to prevent the first contact element and the second contact element from contacting more than one terminal contact surface on an electrical component.
