Abstract

At electrical connector includes a cylindrical post and a base which carried a layer of solder. The bottom surface of the base is provided with standoffs which extend from the base to space the connector from a surface to which the connector is soldered, to ensure that a minimum volume of solder stays between the connector and the mating surface.
