Implementations of pins for semiconductor packages may include: an upper contact portion having a contact surface configured to mechanically and electrically couple with a pin receiver; a lower portion having a vertical stop and at least two curved legs; a horizontal base coupled directly to the at least two curved legs and configured to be soldered to a substrate to mechanically and electrically couple the pin to the substrate, the horizontal base having an upper contact surface, and; a gap between a bottom contact surface of the vertical stop and the upper contact surface of the horizontal base; wherein the at least two curved legs are configured to flex to allow the bottom contact surface of the vertical stop to move toward the upper contact surface of the horizontal base in response to a pressure applied to the pin along a direction collinear with a longest length of the pin toward the upper contact surface, and; wherein the vertical stop is configured to stop movement of the pin when the bottom contact surface contacts the upper contact surface.
