Abstract

A circuit board positioning arrangement for multiple of circuit boards. Support apparatus maintains the circuit boards in a spaced parallel relationship while permitting movement of one board relative to another. Sequencing apparatus fixed to one of the boards engages receiving apparatus on another, positioning one of the boards forward of another. When force is applied to the least advanced board, the most advanced board engages an associated connector. Continued application of force then causes the sequencing apparatus to release allowing the next most advanced board to engage its connector.
