ABSTRACT:
A stacked smart card connector assembly for interconnecting inserted smart cards to a mother board comprises an upper smart card connector and a lower smart card connector fastened together, an intermediate circuit board retained between the two connectors, a transition connector connected to the intermediate circuit board, and a pair of bolts for fastening the upper and lower connectors together. The upper connector is connected to the mother board via the intermediate circuit board and the transition connector is mounted to the mother board. The upper connector is supported on the lower connector by two pairs of protrusions formed on an upper surface of the lower connector and is secured to the lower connector to form a stacked connector assembly by the bolts. The stacked smart card connector assembly is formed by vertically securing two single smart card connectors together with little modification for promoting mass production and facilitating assembly.
