In accordance with one embodiment, an electrical connector can be mounted to a first printed circuit board to obtain a first current capacity, and the electrical connector can be mounted to a second printed circuit board to obtain a second current capacity that is lower than the first current capacity.

Replacement electrical connectors

A card edge connector with latching that enables a compact connector. The connector includes a latch, centrally located along the connector. The latch may be aligned with an alignment rib of the connector housing, reducing the space required for the latch. In some embodiments, portions of the latch may be bifurcated so that the latch may straddle the rib. In this way, space for a latch in a circuit assembly using the connector may be less than in conventional connector with latches on each end.

Compact card edge connector

An electrical power connector can include an electrically insulative connector housing, a first plurality of electrical contacts supported by the connector housing, and a second plurality of electrical contacts supported by the connector housing. The first plurality of electrical contacts can be of a first type, and the second plurality of electrical contacts are of a second type and positioned adjacent to the first plurality of electrical contacts. The arrangement of the electrical contact can provide creepage protection for the electrical connector. Further, the electrical contacts can include mating portions that are touch proof.
