ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector for interconnecting a daughter card to a mother board comprises a dielectric housing having a longitudinally elongated slot and a latch cavity. The housing carries a plurality of contacts which are engageable with contact pads on the daughter card when the daughter card is inserted into the slot in a first position and pivoted through an angle to a second position. A latch member which is attached to the housing has a latch tab engageable behind the daughter card to maintain the daughter card in the second position. The latch member has first and second beams. The first beam has a mounting portion which is stabilized in the latch cavity against longitudinal and lateral movement, and the second beam has a locking tab that is engaged with the housing to secure the latch member against withdrawal from the housing.
