ABSTRACT:
A board-indexing arrangement is provided in an end loading, rotary cam actuated, zero-insertion-force circuit board connector. An activating member drives a resilient arm locating member that temporarily presses inward on the edge of a circuit board in the receiving slot of the connector to insure seating of the board against a lateral index surface at the opposite end of the connector and thereby insures registration between the contacts of the connector and the conductors on the board. It also drives the rotary cam of the connector, moving the connector's contact strips in and out of engagement with the circuit board conductors.
