Abstract
A stacked expansion card assembly is positioned on a mainboard. The mainboard includes a mainboard connector. The stacked expansion card assembly includes a first expansion card, at least one first supporting member, and a first connector. The first card includes a contact card end and electrically connected with the mainboard connector by inserting the contact end of the first expansion card to the mainboard connector. The first supporting member is positioned on the mainboard and supports the first expansion card. The first connector is positioned on the first expansion card and electrically connected or disconnected with a second expansion card by removable insertion of the second expansion card to the first connector. Thereby, the expansion cards can be installed onto the mainboard without increasing the surface area of the mainboard and limited by the layout of the electronic components on the mainboard.
