Claims6
A micro connector comprising an insulator holding a lever, a printed circuit board which has a plurality of micro contacting pieces at a back surface thereof and an FPC cable which has a plurality of micro contacting terminals in an end thereof, wherein said insulator guides said FPC cable to translate along said printed circuit board to permit the FPC cable to be connected directly to the printed circuit board thereby reducing the size of the micro connector;
- wherein at least one of said plurality of micro contacting terminals and said micro contacting pieces has an arch cross sectional shape to define salient contact edges that are adapted to elastically deform when said micro contacting terminals contact said micro contacting pieces.
