ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector (1) for receiving a daughter card having a plurality of conductive surfaces is described. The connector has an elongated housing (5) having a slot (8) for receiving, the daughter card; the slot has electrical terminals (9) for engaging the plurality of conductive surfaces on the daughter card and for electrically connecting the daughter card to the connector. An arm (6, 7) extends from at least one end of the elongated housing; a latch (3, 4) is pivotally connected to the arm. The latch is pivotal about an axis substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis (401) of the housing; the latch is rotatable between a first position at which the daughter card is retained within the elongated slot and a second position at which the daughter card is unrestrained. The longitudinal axis of the connector is not increased when the latch is in the second position.
