Claim:
1. An electrical connector for electrically connecting with a chip module, comprising: an insulating body having a bottom wall, wherein two first side walls extend from two opposite sides of the bottom wall upward, two second side walls extend from the other two opposite sides of the bottom wall upward, and a direction from the bottom wall upward is defined as a vertical direction; multiple rows of terminals located in the bottom wall, wherein a highest portion of each terminal in the vertical direction, which is a surface, defines a contact region for electrically connecting with the chip module, for a first row of terminals that is the closest to an inner surface of one of the first side walls, each contact region of the first row of terminals has a first center point, the first center points of the first row of terminals form a first line, for a second row of terminals that is the closest to one of an inner surface of the second side walls, each contact region of the second row of terminals has a second center point, the second center points of the second row of terminals form a second line, and in a top view along the vertical direction downward, there is a first gap between the inner surface of the one of the first side walls and the first line and there is a second gap between the inner surface of the one of the second side walls and the second line, and the first gap is greater than the second gap; and a carrier used for carrying the chip module to the insulating body, wherein the carrier has at least one buckling portion for buckling a bottom surface of the chip module, and the buckling portion is received in the first gap.
