Abstract
An electrical connector () for connecting a land grid array (LGA) chip with a printed circuit board (PCB) includes a housing (), and terminals () received in passageways () of the housing. The housing defines a base () and four sidewalls (), the base and the sidewalls cooperatively defining a space therebetween for receiving the LGA chip. The base has a multiplicity of passageways along a length thereof, for receiving the corresponding terminals therein. Two adjacent sidewalls each define a resilient beam () with an incline surface and joining the sidewall at two ends. A space () is defined between the beam and the sidewall. When the LGA chip is placed on the base, the two resilient beams can resiliently act on the chip to ensure reliable engagement between the LGA chip and the connector.
