Abstract
An electrical connector for a substrate including a housing having a base, an elongated channel and a plurality of cantilever contacts mounted in the base extending into the channel, and a member operatively mounted in the channel having a base including an aperture receiving each contact mounted in the base of the insulating housing. Inter-engaging latch arms on the housing and member provide for zero insertion force loading of the substrate in the member in a loading position. A cam surface in each aperture cams each contact into engagement with a conductive pad on the substrate and provides a wiped, graduated force electrical connection when the substrate and member are operatively engaged in the housing in a loaded position and the substrate, member and housing are secured by the inter-engaging latch arms on the member and housing.
