Abstract:
1. An electrical pin field, comprising: a dielectric comprising a support member having a plurality of electrically conductive pins disposed within said plurality of through-holes so as to be integrated within said support member, each of said plurality of electrically conductive pins configured to deflect in a direction toward said main body when a pushing force is applied thereto; wherein said plurality of electrically conductive pins include a first portion extending away from said top surface and a second portion extending away from said bottom surface, and said protruding portion having a plurality of non-through hole cavities formed therein, each of said plurality of non-through hole cavities axially aligned with respective ones of said through-holes and formed around a respective pin of said plurality of electrically conductive pins, said plurality of non-through hole cavities having larger diameters as compared to said plurality of through-holes.
