ABSTRACT:
A zero insertion force connector capable of high density interconnection is formed by a pair of contact assemblies each actuated by a respective cam assembly and mounted in a housing. Each contact assembly is formed by first and second elongated rigid contact members held in spaced relationship by several strips of terminals formed by plural terminals fixed in parallel spaced array on an insulative web. One contact member is fixed to a mother circuit board and the other contact member is engaged by the cam assembly which interacts with the walls of the housing to drive the other contact member normal to the surface of a daughter circuit board received in the connector.
