ABSTRACT A sequentially actuated zero insertion force printed circuit board edge connector has electrical contacts which are sequentially cam actuated for engagement with, and disengagement from, an edge of a printed circuit board. The connector has a housing with an elongate board receiving channel, an elongate stepped contact drive member lying freely at the bottom of the channel and a cam member movable between the drive member and the base of the channel. A plurality of the contacts are mounted in spaced apart relationship along at least one elongate wall of the channel. The contacts have a normal position in which they engage the pads of the printed circuit board and are sequentially moved, in at least two groups, by the drive means to an out of engagement position allowing unhampered insertion and withdrawal of the printed circuit board with respect to the connector.
