Hot-pluggable electronic component connection

摘要: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for hot-pluggable electronic component connection. In one embodiment of the invention, ground power line couplings with system are formed by moving in direction while signal another direction. embodiment, guide rail causes to move which couples, first, and, then, lines system. After connected, couples latching mechanism holds place once coupled this an ejection releases allows removal component. same plane as PCB. area used is increased when more present. Thus, added without increasing space requirement or decreasing fault tolerance couplings. optical transceiver. connections made using anisotropic conductive elastomer. pattern etched into PCB circumscribing connections.
