<p>A connector assembly (12) is provided for removably interconnecting first conductors (14) of a flat flexible circuit (16) to a plurality of second conductors (18,76,82) without the use of conductive terminals. The assembly includes a male connector having a relatively rigid male body member (24,56) with an edge (22) about which the flexible circuit (16) is wrapped, and with the first conductors (14) of the circuit facing away from the body member at the edge (22) thereof. An adapter or other female connecting device (36) includes a first receptacle (49) for receiving the male connector inserted edge-first into the first receptacle. A second receptacle (52,44,46) receives the second conductors (18,76,82) in position for engaging the first conductors (14) of the flexible circuit (16) at the edge (22) of the male body member. <IMAGE></p> |
