ABSTRACT:
A circuit board guide and interfitting device to eliminate floating cables. The device involves a mounting system for removably mounting the test printed circuit board or a multiplicity of such boards in a manner by which the test printed circuit boards can be plugged into an interface printed circuit board which in turn is plugged into the computer peripheral equipment to be tested such as disk drives, tape drives, floppy drives, optical drives, etc. The invention further involves a system wherein the specialized mounting member for removably mounting the test printed circuit board is combined with an interface board and a bracket for retaining an edge connector which in turn enables the test printed circuit board to be directly plugged into the interface printed circuit board which in turn can be directly plugged into the piece of equipment to be tested, all through the elimination of flexible interconnecting cables.
