ABSTRACT:
A printed circuit board mountable connecting block of the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,964,812 is provided with electrical contacts which include an insulation displacement slot at one end and a circuit mountable tail at the other end. This tail may comprise a conventional solder tail, or in a preferred embodiment, may comprise a "solderless" press-fit tail. The connecting block of this invention may be mounted directly onto (e.g., through) a printed circuit board (or other electronic component). It will be appreciated that this circuit mountable feature is required and advantageous for many applications. In addition, the use of a solderless connector means (preferably a press-fit tail) is particularly advantageous for providing ease of assembly as well as lower cost (relative to conventional solderable tails).
