ABSTRACT:
A circuit board (12) and electrical connector (10) mounted to an edge (18) thereof is disclosed. The circuit board (12) includes an edge (18) and two major surfaces (14, 16) extending therefrom having circuitry (20). Plated through holes (24) are arranged adjacent the edge and are interconnected to circuitry on the circuit board. Each plated through hole (24) is associated with an opening such as a slot (26) or partial slot (27) that is formed in the edge (18) of the board so that it intersects the hole. The posts (32) of the connector (10) extend into the openings (26, 27) preferably in interference fit therewith whereafter soldering completes the electrical connections of the posts to the through holes.
