ABSTRACT:
A polarized ribbon cable connector which facilitates the placement of electrical or circuit components therein is taught. Briefly stated, a housing lower assembly is profiled to receive a carrier strip therein. The carrier strip has bent up portions which provide for insulation displacement connection with electrical wires. An intermediate assembly is disposed on top of the carrier strip with a channel therein to receive a ribbon cable. A housing top assembly is disposed on top of the ribbon cable and has latches which mate with tabs contained on the lower assembly thereby interlocking various components together. The carrier strip also has contact legs disposed therein which allow for electrical contact to be made with pads contained in an insertable logic package. Knockout pin apertures disposed in the lower assembly allow portions of the carrier strip to be electrically isolated from the contact legs. Additionally, response/command pin apertures are also disposed in the lower assembly which thereby allow response/command plugs having pins therein to mate with the lower assembly whereby the pins contained in the plugs contact different portions of the carrier strip.
