ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to modular connector structures that are shaped to receive the edges of printed circuit boards and that have contacts spaced a unit distance apart so that they can engage, separately, each of the contact pads, or fingers, spaced apart by the same unit distance along the surfaces of the boards. In particular, it relates to connector structures that have conversely shaped interlocking parts at their ends to interlock end-to-end with similar structures to form a substantially self-supporting connector that can have any desired number of contacts, each spaced an integral multiple of the same unit distance from all of the contacts on all of the modules.
