ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to a connector for connecting at least two printed circuit boards without forming a soldered connection to any of the boards. The connector includes a housing having a front face and a rear face, each face being formed with an elongated aperture for receiving therein one edge of a corresponding printed circuit board. A plurality of contact guide channels are formed in the housing extending in parallel spaced relation between the front and rear faces and opening in both faces on opposite sides of the elongated board receiving apertures. Each contact has curved, circuit engaging fingers adjacent to the opposite ends thereof. Each channel is in communication with the elongated apertures to allow the contact's fingers to extend into the apertures thus making electrical contact with circuitry on the printed circuit boards. Each contact may be assembled into a corresponding channel from one housing face in a manner to result in a proper preloading of the contact.
