    摘要: An electronic device is provided with a first connector module configured to mate with an external plug. The first connector module includes a first set of terminals; a first wafer supporting the first set of terminals, a first one or more of the second ends of the first set of terminals are bent to form a first set of tails, and a second one or more of the second ends of the first set of terminals terminate within the first wafer; and a tail alignment structure positioned to support the first set of tails. The electronic device further includes a cable arrangement forming a connection with the second one or more of the second ends of the first set of terminals; a host board configured to form an electrical connection with the first set of tails; and a shield assembly.

    摘要: Various aspects of reworkable press-fit legs are described. In one example, a press-fit leg includes a flat beam extension region, a bent beam region, and a head region. Extending along a longitudinal axis of the leg, the bent beam region of the leg is positioned between the flat beam extension region and the head region of the leg. The bent beam region curves apart and away from the longitudinal axis of the leg, along a segment of a circle. The bent beam region and bent beams are compressible and can extend in length to some extent when inserted into mounting apertures. When removed from the mounting apertures, the bent beam regions also bend back to their original shapes, which facilitates rework of cages and other housings including the legs.
