Abstract
A mounting assembly and a circuit board assembly. The mounting assembly configured to mount a short or long expansion card on the circuit board. The mounting assembly includes a fixed plate and a rotatable plate. The rotatable plate includes a body part, a pivot part and a fastening part. The pivot part is rotatably disposed on the fixed plate. The fastening part has a fastening hole. A pivot axis of the pivot part is spaced apart from a central axis of the fastening hole. When the fastening hole is at the first mounting position, the fastening hole is located closer to the connector than the pivot part to fix the short expansion card. When the fastening hole is at the second mounting position, the fastening hole is located farther away from the connector than the pivot part to fix the long expansion card.
