<p>A zero insertion force card edge connector (10) for mounting on a backplane (12) and receiving therein a daughter card (14) whereby circuits (20,26) on the backplane (12) and card (14) are electrically interconnected through contact members (30,32) in the connector (10). More particularly, the connector (10) includes cam members (34), slidably mounted between an upper and lower housing (36, 28) for driving spring arms (104) on the contact members (30, 32) into engagement with conductive pads (20) on the daughter card (14). The cam members (34) further move the upper housing (36) downwardly, in cooperation with the spring arms (104) which are preloaded in the connector (10), to remove retaining members (196, 198) which otherwise retain the spring arms (104) from entering the card slot (16) and engaging the conductive pads (20).</p> |
