A straddle mount connector (1) includes a dielectric housing (2) defining a mating surface (200) and an opposite mounting surface (202), a pair of ground buses (4) and two rows of signal contacts (3) installed into the housing from the mounting surface. Each ground bus is accompanied with a carrier strip (46) and has solder tails (42) extending from the carrier strip. The ground bus has a number of fingers (460) extending from the carrier strip to define a number of parallel slits (462) between the fingers. The signal contacts have terminal portions (32) extending through the parallel slits, thereby keeping the signal contacts retained between the fingers of the ground bus.

An electrical connector (1) straddle-mounted on an edge (20) of a printed circuit board (2) includes an insulative housing (10) having an elongated groove (11) for mating. A support subassembly (3) is inserted from the opposing side of the housing (10) to expose its portions in the groove (11). The support subassembly (3) includes two bases (30) with attached signal conductors (5) and a U-shaped ground member (4). Two parallel-arranged side portions (40) of the U-shaped ground member (4) are integrally connected via its central portion and each of them is located parallel to a row of signal conductors (5) as their ground reference. The united ground member (4) can be used to establish ground path to the printed circuit board (2) by fewer contacting legs (42) sheared therefrom and help all parts of the support subassembly (3) to be installed in the connector housing (10) at one time.

A ground bus (4) for use with an electrical connector (1) includes a plane body (40) for electrical engagement with a corresponding ground contact of a mating connector, a number of solder tails (42) extending from the plane body and a carrier strip (46) connecting with the solder tails. The ground bus has a number of fingers (460) extending from the carrier strip. The fingers extend into space (320) between adjacent signal contacts (3) after the ground bus is assembled to the connector. Each solder tail (42) has a solder joint (420) for electrical connection to a printed circuit board (8). A bringing element (422) interconnects two adjacent solder tails at the solder joint.

An electrical connector (1) includes an insulative housing (10) and a number of contacts (28) attached to the housing. The contacts each have a contact tail (36) downwardly extending beyond a mounting surface (32) of the insulative housing for inserting into throughholes (42) of a PCB (40). The contact tails are overlapped in pairs and each pair of contact tails is inserted into the same throughhole of the PCB. Some pairs of contact tails, called retention contact tails (68), have protrusions (52) deviating from each other for bearing against peripheral walls of the throughholes of the PCB thereby producing retention force. The other pairs of contact tails, called non-retention contact tails (70), do not have protrusions and do not interfere with peripheral walls of the other throughholes thereby reducing the insertion force. The retention contact tails can be modified to the non-retention contact tails by severing the protrusions therefrom.

A machine (50) is disclosed that assembles an electrical connector (10) to the edge (18) of a printed circuit board (12). The machine incorporates an actuating mechanism that requires only a single input motion to achieve a Variety of functional motions within the machine. The machine includes a carriage assembly (54) that moves substantially vertically within the frame of the machine to sense the thickness of the circuit board and then to align the centerline of the connector held on fixture (280) with the exact center plane (44) of the board. A slide member (140) then moves toward the connector, causing a pair of comb members (252, 254) to close into position in front of the moving connector. The solder tails (38,40) of the connector (10) then enter spaced slots (260) in the edges of the comb members for support and the connector housing engages the face (272) of the combs, pushing them toward the circuit board. Angled free ends of the solder tails (38, 40) of the connector then engage the corners of upper and lower board surfaces (14, 16) at the board edge (18), and the center row of ground bus posts (32) are forced into apertures (26) in the edge of the board by a pusher member (174) until they contact plated through holes (24) in the board while the outer rows of tails cam out to and bear against and along the two opposite major board surfaces and into contact with solder pads thereon.

A mating extender electrically engages with a pair of complementary connectors. The mating extender comprises an insulative housing having first and second mating sections, and a number of wafers parallelly assembled into the insulative housing. Each wafer comprises an insulative frame and a plurality of contacts each formed by a pair of electrically stacked semi-contacts. Each contact has an intermediate portion retained in the insulative frame, a pair of first contact tails and a pair of second contact tails at opposite ends of the intermediate portion and received in the first and the second mating sections of the insulative housing, respectively.

An electrical connector (1) adapted for connecting a flexible board comprises an insulated housing (2) defining a number of retaining channels, a number of first and second contacts (3, 4) and a pressing member (5). Each first contact has a pivot portion extending in a longitudinal direction and functioning as pivot point for actuation of the pressing member. The pressing member has a number of passageways for receiving corresponding pivot portions. After the pivot portions are fully received in corresponding passageways, the second contacts are assembled in the retaining channels. The first contacts cooperate with the second contact to secure the pressing member in the longitudinal direction.
