What is a Compression Terminal?

Compression Terminal Compression Terminal called by various names such as ground terminals, earth terminals, on-board contacts, and spring terminals. It is a component that secures a connection by mounting it on a board and pressing it against the target contact, and because it is easy to use for ground connection with the housing, etc., there are many names associated with it. Due to the minimal structure of the connector, we often see cases that are provided by manufacturers other than connector specialists.
