ABSTRACT:
A circuit board connector having a plurality of pairs of contacts arranged in a row and with each contact having a "C" shaped portion. Each pair of contacts is mounted securely at first ends thereof in a circuit board with the backs, or closed sides, of the "C" shaped portion facing each other and designed to receive the edge of a second circuit board inserted therebetween. The free end of each contact has an ear-like element extending outwardly from the board to which the contacts are secured. A connector housing fits over the pairs of contacts after they have been secured in the board. Inside the housing tabs are provided, behind which tabs the ears of the contacts are positioned, thereby prestressing each pair of contacts apart. The housing is also designed so that the side walls thereof press against a dimple or finger-like tang formed near the base of each contact, thereby forcing the contacts of each pair of contacts together and further enhancing the prestressing of each pair of contacts.
