Patent ID: 7530817

Claim:
An electrical connector for electrically connecting a chip module to a PCB, comprising: an insulation body provided with a first sidewall, a second sidewall opposite to the first sidewall, and an accommodation space for the chip module laterally between the first and second sidewalls; a plurality of terminals, separately accommodated in the insulation body; each terminal being provided with an elastic arm protruding into the accommodation space and extending toward the second sidewall of the insulation body, the elastic arm being provided with a contact portion for contacting an electrically conductive slice of the chip module; and an elastic part disposed adjacent the second sidewalls of the insulation body, the elastic part being configured to deflectively guide downward and lateral advancement of the chip module into the accommodation space of the insulation body, and thereby precisely locate the electrically conductive slices upon the contact portions, wherein the difference between the distance from the second sidewall to the corresponding sidewall of chip module and the distance of the contact portion before and after the terminals are deformed is approximately half the width of the electrically conductive slice.
