Abstract
A minature connector capable of providing an electrically shielded connection at close pin spacings comprises a double sided printed circuit board (PCB) having parallel tracks etched on an upper surface and contacts soldered thereto. A screening shell having insulation material on an inner surface encloses the PCB end contacts and is electrically connected to the edges of the undersurface of the PCB to complete a rectangular-section screening casing. A stack of such assemblies is enclosed in a grouper housing to form, for example, a six by four connector array which is electrically shielded.
