ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector is disclosed for interconnecting a flat flexible circuit to a printed circuit board. The connector includes a dielectric housing having an elongated mouth for receiving the flat flexible circuit. Terminals are mounted in the housing and are adapted for coupling appropriate conductors of the flat flexible circuit with circuit traces on the printed circuit board. An actuator has an elongated tongue for insertion into the mouth of the housing to maintain the flat flexible circuit in engagement with the terminals. At least one latch/mounting clip is mounted on the housing, and a complementary interengaging latch is provided between a first portion of the clip and the actuator to hold the actuator in its inserted position on the housing. A second portion of the clip is adapted for operative association with the printed circuit board.
