AM-3F ABSTRACT LOW OR ZERO INSERTION FORCE CONNECTOR FOR MULTI-PIN ARRAYS A connector for zero or low insertion force receipt of multi-pin arrays, such as those in very large scale integration (VLSI) components, includes cam sur- faces for selective movement to oppose the self-biasing forces of connector contacts for pin insertion and re- verse movement to permit the contacts to effect tight engagement with the pins under the influence of such self-biasing forces. The connector preferably includes cooperating camming surfaces having inclined ramps and slots. Selective longitudinal movement of a cam actua- tor causes vertical movement of a cam plate whereby self-biasing of connector contacts is opposed for ready pin insertion. Engagement between the cam plate and contacts ceases upon reverse movement of the cam actua- tor to permit the contacts to tightly engage the pins.
