Abstract
A card edge connector is provided with a housing, a receptacle to be mounted on an end part of a circuit board and fit to the housing, a connection terminal including a resilient contact piece to be brought into contact with a surface of the circuit board and a pressure receiving portion, and a pressure holding member to be mounted into the housing and including a pressing portion for pressing the pressure receiving portion. The receptacle includes an inclined portion, along which the pressure holding member is displaced to increase a pressing stroke of the pressing portion for the pressure receiving portion as the housing is further fit into the receptacle. The resilient contact piece is displaced toward a board accommodating portion for accommodating the circuit board and contacts the surface of the circuit board while pressing the surface of the circuit board as the pressing stroke increases.
