ABSTRACT:
A zero force edge connector block includes a plurality of terminals for engaging pads on a circuit board, an elongate cam bar extending along the terminals, and a drive for shifting the cam bar along the terminals so that the cam bar engages ramp surfaces in the block and is raised diagonally to engage the terminals and move the terminals to a retracted position. After the board has been positioned in the block, the cam bar is moved back to its initial position, thereby freeing the terminals to engage contact pads on the board.
