Abstract
Electrical contacts described herein reduce electromagnetic interference and electrical resistance for circuits that handle high-frequency electrical currents. An electrical contact described herein comprises a base portion. The length of the base portion is greater than the width of the base portion. An indentation in a first side of the base portion is opposite an indentation on a second side of the base portion. The width of the protrusion is less than the width of the base portion. The protrusion is configured to be placed against a second electrical contact to allow an electrical current to flow through the electrical contact. The position of the protrusion relative to the second electrical contact and the geometry of the protrusion can eliminate stubs that cause electromagnetic interference and increase the area of contact between the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact.
