Abstract

A connector for supporting a printed circuit board in electrical and mechanical connection to the wrapping posts or pins of a wire wrap panel without interference to wrapped wire connections at the pins includes a housing, electrical contacts arranged in opposed pairs within the housing for movement between cocked position for receiving the pins and locked position for locking engagement biting into the pins, and means for retaining the printed circuit board in the housing. The contacts are moved to locked position by inserting the leading edge of the printed circuit board into engagement therewith, and each contact provides a connection between an electrical circuit on the printed circuit board and a respective pin.
