Abstract
A low-profile locking clip is installable on a surface-mount header of a printed circuit board to secure one or more inserted plug connectors in mating engagement with the surface-mount header to prevent unintended loosening and disconnection. The locking clip comprises a plurality of catch members that engage with respective lead pins of the surface-mount header and a top wall that includes one or more recesses for receiving a detent tab on a corresponding plug connector to prevent withdrawal of the plug connector.
