A stacked smart card connector establishes an electrical connection between at least one contact pad of at least one IC card and corresponding conductive elements of a printed circuit board. The connector includes an insulative housing having a base positioned that supports a plurality of electrical contacts therein. An assembly cover is positioned in overlying spaced parallel relationship with the base and a modular center portion is fixedly positioned in parallel relationship between the base and the cover to define more than one card insertion slot for simultaneous sliding receipt of a smart card within each slot. In order to conserve space in the area surrounding a printed circuit board, and therefore facilitate the transfer of an increased amount of information, an improved connector assembly is therefore provided that permits mechanical and electrical connection of multiple smart cards within a stacked connector assembly.
