ABSTRACT:
A printed wiring board connector comprises a rigid, dielectric surface with an opening therein. Mounted on the rigid surface are various components and conductive paths; the components include jumper wires that span the opening and are mechanically attached to the rigid surface on opposite sides of the opening. The jumper wires are electrically connected to the conductive paths. The printed wiring board connector is joined with a base unit which comprises a rigid, dielectric structure having connector housing molded therein that extends through the opening in the printed wiring board and includes wire-receiving slots for supporting the jumper wires. In one assembly, the connector housing includes metallic connectors positioned between a lead frame associated with the base unit and the jumper wires. In another assembly, the connector housing includes pairs of slots for facilitating electrical connections. Insulation-displacement connectors are used for easy attachment to the printed wiring board connector.
