ABSTRACT:
A card edge electrical connector is shown for providing electrical connections between a printed circuit card and a printed circuit board wherein the printed circuit card has either a 32 bit or a 16 bit capacity. The connector includes a housing having a retaining post that is inserted into an aperture of the printed circuit board to retain the connector to the printed circuit board. The retaining post is tubular having an axial slot extending through the sidewall thereof so as to be resilient and durable. Further, each of the contacts disposed within the connector housing includes a stabilizing arm that opposes the forces created by the insertion of the printed circuit card into the connector housing so as to distribute the opposing forces between the stabilizing arm and the base of the contact. Contacts of alternating sizes and having beams of different angles with the base are employed in the connector. However the contacts have equal path lengths between the printed circuit board and the top of the connector housing through the respective contacts.
