Abstract
The disclosed connector and method transfers high frequency signals from one circuit board to another circuit board, while maintaining good electrical and mechanical performance, at a significantly reduced cost. The connector includes a body member and a conductive pin extending through a center portion of the body member to opposing planar surfaces. An arcuate contact member is positioned within the body member and circumferential to at least a portion of the conductive pin. A flexible conductive material is positioned on an opposing surface and engages the arcuate contact member such that the connector can be positioned between cooperating circuit boards, allowing the conductive pin and arcuate contact member to operatively engage the circuit boards for passing signals therebetween.
