INTERCONNECT SYSTEM ENGAGEMENT SENSOR

摘要

An electrical connector assembly (10) includes a housing (20) supporting a plurality of terminals (24) for a primary circuit and at least two terminals (32) for a sensor circuit. A mating header (22) includes terminals (26, 34) corresponding to the primary circuit and to the sensor circuit. A conductive link (36) is disposed in either the housing (20) or the header (22) to short the sensor terminals (32) disposed therein. Once the mating components of the connector (10) are attached, the sensor circuit is completed through the conductive link (36) and an indication of a proper connection can be verified.
