ABSTRACT:
Edge connector comprises a housing assembly having a board receiving trough which receives edge portions of a printed circuit board. The housing assembly comprises an insulating housing in which contact terminals are contained and a sheet metal frame of channel-shaped cross-section in which the insulating housing is nested. A camming means is mounted on the sheet metal frame for urging the circuit board against a board engaging surface portion of the insulating housing and an auxiliary spring is mounted on the frame to provide a high clamping force on the circuit board. The camming means is movable laterally towards and away from the board engaging surface so that the connector can receive circuit boards of widely varying thicknesses.
