ABSTRACT:
A connector includes a first connector housing having a primary surface formed with a plurality of channels, with a first set of contacts arranged three-dimensionally along the primary surface for electrical connection to a circuit board such as a module or a daughtercard. Attached to the main board of the computer system is a second connector housing, also having a primary surface. A corresponding set of second contacts is disposed along the primary surface of the second connector housing, with the primary surface of the second connector housing being formed with a corresponding plurality of fingers mated to the channels. The second set of contacts is arranged on the fingers such that when the first and second connector housings are placed in a mated relationship by inserting the fingers into the channels, the first and second sets of contacts are individually aligned with one another, and mating of the first and second connector housings establishes electrical connection between corresponding ones of the first and second sets of contacts.
