Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a connector which ensures a sufficient contact pressure at a low cost and has a long connection life and also provide a fabrication method the connector. The connector 10 comprises a base member 100 and the contacts 200 projecting upwards and downwards of the base member 100 . Openings 110 formed on the base member 100 extend in the direction crossing the pitch direction of the contacts 200 . The contact 200 has an elastic-support member 220 and a contact film 260 pasted on the elastic-support member 220 . The contact film 260 faces the opening 110 so that length of the contact film 260 can be larger than interval between the contacts 200 in the pitch direction. The contact 200 absorbs variations of a size of pads of the connection objects.
