Battery connector

An electrical assembly comprising:

• a printed circuit board;
• at least one electrical connector mounted upon the printed circuit board and mated with a battery in front thereof, said connector comprising:
• an dielectric housing defining an interior space in communication with an exterior in a horizontal direction, and a pair of passageways in communication with the exterior in a vertical direction;
• a conductive terminal upwardly assembled to the housing and including a base being generally flush with a mounting face of the housing and electrically and mechanically connected to the printed circuit board, a pair of retention limbs extending upwardly from two lateral sides of the base and latchably received within the pair of passageways, respectively, a contact portion extending out of a mating face of the housing in a horizontal direction when said connector is not mated with the battery, a convex and a concave sections being disposed between the contact portion and the base;
• wherein
• the housing provides a supporting surface in said interior space engaged with a distal end of the contact portion to have the contact portion supportably depressed into the interior space when said connector and said battery are mated together.

An electrical assembly comprising:

• a printed circuit board;
• more than one electrical connectors side by side disposed on the printed circuit board, each of said connector including a dielectric housing with a single conductive terminal therein;
• a common electronic component located in front of said juxtaposed connectors;
• wherein
• each of said terminals includes a mating portion resiliently compressibly mechanically and electrically engaged with a corresponding electrode of the electronic component and a mounting portion mechanically and electrically engaged with a solder section on the printed circuit board, respectively.
