Electrical connector with housing, terminals, and spacer for resonance damping
The granted patent (Publication Number: US11955742B2) describes an electrical connector comprising a housing with two sidewalls, each housing a set of terminals with signal pairs and ground terminals. A component is electrically coupled to the ground terminals to dampen resonance in the connector. The design includes protruding portions and notches in the component to achieve this function effectively.
Furthermore, the patent details a surface-mount electrical connector with terminals in slots on opposite sidewalls of the housing. A component within the housing is connected to the ground terminals to reduce resonance. The design allows for easy mounting on a substrate surface parallel to the connector, enhancing usability and performance. The component's structure, including protruding portions and notches, contributes to the efficient damping of resonance in the connector, ensuring optimal functionality.
