Zusammenfassung:An electrical connector (100) includes a terminal (102) having a first surface (108) defining a plurality of ridges (112) protruding from the first surface (108). A first ridge (112) in the plurality of ridges (112) has a different height above the first surface (108) than a second ridge (112) in the plurality of ridges (112). The plurality of ridges (112) is configured to provide a plurality of electrical contact points between the terminal (102) and a corresponding mating terminal (104). A method (200) of manufacturing the electrical connector (100) includes the steps of providing a terminal preform (106) formed of sheet metal having the first surface (108) and forming the plurality of ridges (112) which protrude from the first surface (108).
