<p>A connector (10) for mounting a module (78) on a circuit board (36), includes a circuit board mounted header (12) at least partially enclosing an area of contact pads (38) and a plug assembly (14) secured to the mating module (78) and receivable in the header (12). The plug assembly (14) includes an inner housing (18) directly attached to the module (78) and movable within an outer housing (16). At least one series of spring terminals (20) are mounted with a first portion (102) engaging the outer housing and a second portion (98) bearing against the module (78). Spring bias means (22) are mounted in the outer housing (16) bearing against the opposite side of the inner housing (18) from the terminals (20). Both the terminals (20) and the bias spring (22) are profile to assume either a rest condition, or an over centered contacting position. When the plug assembly (14) is initially mated into the header (12) there is no contact force but subsequent insertion force drives the terminals (20) and the bias spring (22) into an over centered condition with the former making good contact between the module (78) and the circuit board (36). </p> |
