Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0921610A2] An electrical connector assembly for facilitating mounting an electrical connector on a top surface of a printed circuit board. A connector housing is adapted for mounting at the edge of the circuit board. A plurality of terminals are mounted on the housing, with tail portions of the terminals projecting from the housing for solder termination to the top surface of the circuit board. A removable cover is mounted on the housing and includes a support arm portion projecting from the housing and adapted for engagement with a bottom surface of the printed circuit board. With the circuit board so positioned, the board is sandwiched between the tail portions of the terminals and the support arm portion of the cover at the edge of the board. A method of fabricating an electrical connector and circuit board assembly is also disclosed. <IMAGE>
