ABSTRACT:
A right angle card edge connector includes a housing having a number of contact passageways defined in a first direction. A number of contacts each have a contact portion fixedly received in a corresponding contact passageway, and a terminal portion perpendicular to the contact portion for connection to a mother board. A number of board lock receiving passages are defined in the housing having openings exposed to rear and bottom sides of the housing. Each passage has a generally L-shaped configuration. A corresponding number of board locks each have a generally L-shaped body portion with a lateral side and a vertical side facing downwards. Two barbs are formed on the lateral side for fixedly engaging with the housing. A pair of legs extend downward from the vertical side for engaging with the mother board. The board locks are mounted to the housing by inserting the board locks into the passages along the first direction. A protective shell is mounted to the housing to protect the terminal portions of the contacts. A spacer is mounted to the housing to accurately space the terminal portions of the contacts from each other a predetermined distance.
