Abstract:
An electronic board assembly comprises a board comprising an electronic component and a connector mounted to the board and electrically connected to the electronic component. The connector is configured to receive an electronic card assembly, and the connector comprises an electrical contact and a friction contact. The electrical contact is configured to exert a first amount of force on the electronic card assembly when the electronic card assembly is being seated in the connector. The friction contact is configured to exert a second amount of force on the electronic card assembly when the electronic card assembly is being seated in the connector. The second amount of force is greater than the first amount of force.
