ABSTRACT:
An electronic connector of the invention is used for linking together two printed circuit boards, such as a master printed circuit board and a peripheral interface circuit board. The electronic connector holds the circuit boards firmly, properly oriented and in good conductive contact, on a base platform. The connector has a leaf spring for inserting in a fixation mounting on a base platform. The leaf spring has a flexible, resilient die-pressed metal sheet body. An upper portion of the metal sheet body has a slanted face projecting forward adjacent a first side edge of the upper portion and a guide member extending downward from a lower edge of a second side edge of the upper portion and spaced away from said sheet body by a gap. A lower portion of the sheet body has a centrally located fixed semicircular forward projection having a point projecting forward therefrom and a pair of hooks extending forward and upward from adjacent a lower edge of the sheet body spaced on either side of and below the semicircular projection. The electronic connector is engaged with a fixation mounting of a base platform having a grooved guide wall for fixedly receiving the sheet body on one side of the groove in the guide wall and for receiving the guide member on the other side of the groove in the guide wall.
