Electrical connector for module packaging.

摘要

An electrical connector, described for suitably connecting electronic packages to each other or an electrical package to electrical wires. In a preferred form, the connector comprises a plurality of contacts (40) supported by an insulative housing (32), the housing having opposite surfaces adjacent which exposed portions (40A) of the contacts lie. The exposed contact portions (40A) are attached to electrically engage two respective printed circuit boards (10, 20) on the top and bottom of the connector. Additionally, a further set of contacts (31) is provided, which contacts (31) include an exposed portion (31A) adjacent one of the housing supporting surfaces and a terminal portion (31B) disposed substantially parallel to such supporting surfaces for electrical engagement to a terminated wire (50).
