Abstract:
1. High Frequency (HF) connector for connecting a coaxial plug connector to a HF transmission line on a circuit board, the HF connector comprising: at least a first pair of spring blades arranged for electrically contacting a central conductor of the coaxial plug connector and at least a second pair of spring blades arranged for electrically contacting an outer conductor of the coaxial plug connector, at least one of the spring blades of the first pair having, on an end facing away from the coaxial plug connector, a contact surface for electrically connecting the HF connector to the HF transmission line on the circuit board and for mechanical connection with the circuit board, and at least one spring blade of the second pair having, on an end facing away from the coaxial plug connector, a contact surface for electrically connecting the HF connector to a chassis contact on the circuit board and for mechanical connection with the circuit board, the HF connector having a housing that carries all the spring blades, the housing having at least one peg which extends away from the housing for engaging the circuit board, the at least one peg being arranged for engaging a metallised hole in the circuit board, the peg having at least one detent lug which extends in the radial direction in relation to the peg, beyond the lug outer periphery, the detent lug being arranged on the peg such that the outer periphery of the peg is smaller in the region of the detent lug than the diameter of the hole in the circuit board, whereby the outer periphery of the section of the peg protruding into the hole in the circuit board is such that between the outer periphery of the section of the peg and the inner wall of the hole in the circuit board, over at least a portion of the outer periphery, there is an intermediate space with capillarity for solder, such that solder situated on the surface of the circuit board during a soldering procedure penetrates into and fills the intermediate space by capillary action.
