ABSTRACT:
A two-piece connector is disclosed for making zero insertion force interconnection between a mother board and a daughter board. The connector includes a plug mounted on the daughter board and a receptacle mounted on the mother board. A linear moving cam means acts on terminals carried by the receptacle to drive them normal to the elongated axis of the receptacle. When the receptacle terminals are opened by the cam means, the plug can be inserted into the receptacle either in a normal abutting fashion or end insertion by being moved laterally into the receptacle from one end. The terminals in the receptacle each have a blade which serves as the mating portion. The terminals carried by the plug each have a pair of closely spaced tines forming a pocket therebetween which receives a mating blade therein. The subject connector system is particularly useable for effecting a high density array interconnection between mother/daughter boards.
