Abstract
Disclosed is a connector for forming a high-current connection between two printed circuit boards that are arranged at right angles to one another. For this purpose, a slit pin contact is provided.
Claims15
A printed-circuit board connector for transmitting electrical power with high currents, wherein the printed-circuit board connector has at least one metallic, one-piece pin contact, wherein the pin contact possesses a connection region at a first end, with which connection region the pin contact is configured to be soldered to a first contact region of a first printed circuit board and/or to be pressed into the first printed circuit board at the first contact region, and wherein the pin contact, opposite at a second end, possesses a plug-in region with a slot, running in the direction of the first end, configured for mechanically fixing and for electrically contacting at least one second contact region which is arranged at the edge of a second printed circuit board.
An arrangement which has at least the following:
- the first printed circuit board, which possesses at least the first electrical contact region;
- the second printed circuit board, which possesses at least the second and a third electrical contact region which are connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner via a conductor track of the second printed circuit board;
- and
- the printed-circuit board connector as claimed in one of the preceding claims for electrically connecting the first contact region to the second contact region.
