ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for adjoining along a mating axis a first and second circuit board to directly mate a first integrated connector of the first board with a second integrated connector of the second board is disclosed. The apparatus comprises an attachment plate to be supported in a substantially horizontal plane; a plurality of extension arms extending downward from the plate to suspendingly restrain the first board away from the plate except to permit the first board to translate along the mating axis toward the plate; an pressure platform extending downward from the plate to apply to the first board a mating-axis force collocated with the first connector; and a plurality of attachment elements to secure the plate to the second circuit board without applying forces to the first circuit board. Forces applied to the plate are transferred to the first board through only the pressure platform.
