Abstract
An electrical connector assembly includes a flexible circuit attached to a clamp member and a compression mat between the clamp member and the flexible circuit. The compression mat has a number of spaced-apart pillars that overlay contacts of the flexible circuit. The pillars are interconnected by sets of upper and lower bridges, with each set of bridges interconnecting some, but not all, the pillars. Each pillar has a rectangular cross section with concave sides.
