ABSTRACT:
A connector assembly for connecting a flexible printed circuit or flat conductor tape cable with exposed terminal pads to the thru-hole terminals of a PC board or second flexible printed circuit includes a socket and conductive posts. Corresponding first ends of the posts project into the socket and corresponding second ends of the posts project from the bottom of the header for insertion into the PC board or second flexible printed circuit terminals. A connector is mounted to the end of the flexible circuit or flat conductor tape cable and it has post-receiving passages for receiving the post first ends so that those ends are electrically connected to the terminals pads of the flexible circuit or flat conductor tape cable when the connector is inserted into the header socket. Provision is also made for locking the connector in the header socket.
