Abstract
A high density electrical connector (10) includes a pair of plastic housings (12, 14) spring loaded by springs (50) to be driven apart and including guide surfaces (24, 34) and guide holes (30) that guide pins (52) on a mating component (60) to assure a proper alignment between circuit traces of component and connector and camming surfaces (24, 68) operable upon engagement to drive the housings relatively together to compress a flexible film elastomeric circuit (80) having traces (82) engaging with circuits (76) on a board (74) of a component. The film circuit includes a further elastomeric circuit held normally compressed by the housings under force of the mother board fastening means to interconnect to a further circuit (90) on the mother board (88). A use of the connector (10) includes electrically and mechanically interconnecting a component such as a hard drive disk to a component such as a computer.
