ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly is provided, which is compact and of light weight and which can lock to the rear of an IC (integrated circuit) card. The assembly includes a frame (54, FIG. 2 ) with a wide front portion (56) and a narrower rearward extension (90) that has a horizontal groove (92). A circuit board (74) has a slot (100), with opposite walls of the circuit board slot received in opposite groove parts of the frame rearward extension. A cable (20) whose front end is held to the rear of the board, has insulated wires (70) held in place against the board by tabs (120) projecting from the rearward extension. A pair of bendable latching arms (34, 36) project forwardly from the front of the frame for reception in a central aperture at the rear of the IC card. The frame has a central opening through which a locking pin (150) can slide to lock the arms in the IC card.
