Abstract

An electrical connector is disclosed with a connector housing and a leadframe assembly received in the connector housing. The leadframe assembly may include a dielectric leadframe housing and first and second electrically-conductive contacts extending through the leadframe housing. Each of the contacts may define a respective broadside and a respective mating end. The leadframe housing may define a hinge between the mating ends of the first and second contacts. The leadframe housing may be folded along the hinge such that the broadside of the first contact is positioned along the broadside of the second contact. A method for manufacturing such an electrical connector may include stamping a leadframe from a sheet of electrically-conductive material, overmolding a hinged, leadframe housing onto the leadframe, folding the leadframe along the hinge.
