Abstract
An electrical interface device may include a first printed circuit board (PCB) configured to electrically couple one or more electrical contacts to one or more corresponding conductive headers. The electrical interface device may also include a second PCB configured to electrically couple the one or more corresponding conductive headers to one or more corresponding pins of a connector.
Claims20
An electrical interface device comprising:
- a first printed circuit board (PCB) configured to electrically couple one or more electrical contacts to one or more corresponding conductive headers;
- and
- a second PCB configured to electrically couple the one or more corresponding conductive headers to one or more corresponding pins of a connector.
An interface, comprising:
- one or more electrical headers configured to electrically couple a test pad PCB and a connector PCB;
- the test pad PCB configured to electrically couple an additional PCB to the one or more electrical headers;
- and
- the connector PCB configured to electrically couple the one or more electrical headers to pins of a connector.
A device electrically coupling first conductive elements arranged in a first configuration to second conductive elements arranged in a second configuration, comprising:
- a first PCB comprising:
- one or more contacts in the first configuration;
- one or more circuit traces coupling the one or more contacts to one or more header pins arranged in a third configuration;
- and
- a second PCB comprising:
- one or more additional circuit traces coupling the one or more header pins arranged in the third configuration to the second conductive elements in the second configuration.
