Abstract
An electrical connector for electrically connecting a card to a printed circuit board comprises an insulative housing, a number of contacts and a pair of board locks received in the housing, and a pair of card ejector mechanisms pivotally mounted in opposite ends of the housing. The housing defines a slot which separates a middle section thereof into a first part and a second part. The first and second parts each define a number of cavities in which the contacts are received. The first and second parts each provides a number of projections extending beyond an inner wall thereof. The projections on the first part are spaced a distance equal to a thickness of a daughter card inserted in the slot from the projections on the second part. The projections on the first and second parts abut against opposite surfaces of the daughter card thereby securing the daughter card in the housing.
