ABSTRACT:
A connector is provided for connecting two rows of closely-spaced miniature conductive pads on a pair of circuit boards, which enables zero insertion force for a circuit board and allows connection to be made without thereafter moving the inserted circuit board. The apparatus includes an elongated bobbin having a pivot axis extending along its length and an electrically conductive wire extending in multiple helical turns about the bobbin. The wire is severed along each turn, and forms a pair of contacts along each turn that are spaced further from the pivot axis than adjacent portions of the bobbin and wire. The bobbin is pivotally mounted so it can be pivoted between a connect position wherein the contact portions of each wire turn contact pads on the two boards to connect them, and a disconnect position wherein the contact portions do not contact the pads.
