ABSTRACT:
An electrical connector is provided for electrically coupling a plurality of conductors of different configuration with an electronic component. A plurality of insulation displacement terminals and a plurality of surface terminating terminals are provided for use with the connector assembly. A common housing mounts the electronic component and has channels for locating a plurality of discrete insulated conductor wires and a surface area for interfacing with a substrate having a plurality of surface conductors thereon. The housing includes a plurality of first receptacles for selectively receiving the insulation displacement terminals for termination to the insulated conductor wires and electrically coupling the wires to the electronic component, and a plurality of second receptacles for, alternatively, receiving the surface terminating terminals in termination with the conductors on the substrate and electrically coupling the conductors to the electronic component. Therefore, the common housing, in combination with either the insulation displacement terminals or the surface terminating terminals, can be used to electrically couple either discrete insulated conductor wires or surface conductors, respectively, to the electronic component.
