Abstract
An electrical connector assembly includes a housing that is configured to receive a planar first substrate, The first substrate includes an electrically conductive first contact region. The electrical connector assembly is further configured to receive a planar second substrate that includes an electrically conductive second contact region defining a ridge protruding from a surface of the second substrate. The housing is configured to align the first contact region with the second contact region. The electrical connector assembly also includes a force application device applying a compressive contact force to the first and second substrates, thereby putting the first contact region in intimate compressive contact with the second contact region.
