Abstract
A circuit board electrical connector with a latch, includes an insulation housing (10) having a base section (11) with a slot (13) in which a plurality of contact elements (30) are arranged and a pair of side walls (12) extending laterally from opposite ends of the base section and having latch portions (18) at their free ends to latch a circuit board which is inserted into the slot and rotated to a latch position; and restriction portions (22, 22D) for preventing the latch portions from flexing in a direction other than a latch operation direction so that damage to the latch portions caused by excessive flexure in the directions is avoided.
