Abstract
A circuit board assembly includes a circuit board substrate defining an aperture extending therethrough and configured to accept a planar male terminal from a first side of the circuit board substrate. The assembly further includes a female terminal extending from a second side of the circuit board substrate opposite the first side that defines a slot in a U-shaped portion on the second side of the circuit board substrate. The slot has an open end and a closed end. The slot is sized and arranged to receive the male terminal extending through the aperture be in an interference fit with the male terminal. The female terminal has a pair of tines, each tine having a fixed end attached to a base portion and a free end. The free end of one of the tines is disposed within a mounting hole in the circuit board substrate located adjacent the aperture.
