Abstract
A flexible circuit compression connector system utilized to electrically connect together conductive pads disposed on a rigid printed circuit board, the connector system comprising a flexible insulating substrate having conductive material at a plurality of preselected positions and a conductive line extending between at least two of the preselected positions, a plurality of contacts, each contract secured to the flexible substrate at each of the preselected positions having conductive material, a compression assembly that includes a resilient compression mat and means for aligning the flexible substrate of the compression assembly and the rigid substrate together so that the resilient compression mat urges the contacts secured to the flexible substrate against the conductive pads on the printed circuit board. A method of manufacturing the flexible circuit compression connector system that includes a compression assembly by forming the contacts into a preselected configuration and securing the contacts to the flexible substrate is also included.
