Abstract
A system for connecting printed circuit boards to each other includes electrical connectors and positioners. The positioners fixedly position the boards relative to each other in a general spaced parallel configuration. The electrical connectors can connect the boards to each other in series. The connectors include power contacts, ground contacts, and driver circuits located inside the connector housing. The driver circuit has a transceiver for synchronous two way communications and buffers for repeating and strengthening digital signals.
