Electrical connector

An electrical connector for electrically connecting with a chip module and a circuit board, comprising:

• a body having a plurality of receiving slots;
• and
• a plurality of terminals disposed in the receiving slots respectively, wherein each of the terminals comprises:
• a base;
• a material connection portion extending vertically from a side of the base;
• a fixing portion extending vertically from another side of the base and fixable to the receiving slot, wherein the fixing portion and the material connection portion are located at two opposite sides of the base in a vertical direction;
• a first elastic arm bending upward and extending from the base;
• a first contact portion disposed at a top end of the first elastic arm for contacting the chip module;
• at least one first bending portion formed by the first elastic arm;
• a second elastic arm bending downward and extending from the base;
• a second contact portion disposed at a bottom end of the second elastic arm for contacting the circuit board;
• and
• a plurality of second bending portions formed by the second elastic arm, wherein the number of the second bending portions is greater than the number of the at least one first bending portion;
• and
• wherein the first contact portion exceeds a plane on which the base is located, and the second contact portion is located within the plane on which the base is located.
