Abstract
A connector assembly utilizes improved capacitive coupling for connecting together electrical circuits on two substrates (). The connector assembly includes first () and second () connectors respectively attached to first and second circuit substrates. The first connector includes a plurality of first conductors () connected to circuits () on the first circuit substrate and these conductors have exposed contact surfaces with a dielectric material () disposed thereon. The first conductors and associated dielectric material confront second, opposing conductors () supported by the second connector frame when the connector frames are engaged together. A liquid dielectric material () is interposed between the terminals and the dielectric portions that fills minute gaps which may occur in the dielectric portions to improve the capacitive coupling ability of the connector assembly.
