ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector provides for the connection of the contact pads of an IC card to a printed circuit board. The connector includes a base supportable on the printed circuit board and a cover pivotally removable with respect to the base. The base supports a plurality of electrical contacts. Each contact has a spring element and a contact tail extending from the base for termination to the printed circuit board. The cover is pivotally movable from an open position permitting insertion and removal of the card from the cover to a closed position with the contact pads of the IC card being positioned adjacent the spring elements. The cover is further movable linearly from the closed position to a locked position locking the cover to the base and moving the contact pads over the spring elements and into electrical engagement therewith.
