Patent ID: 6903941

Claim:
A printed circuit board (PCB) assembly comprising: a PCB having a first major surface and an opposite second major surface; an electrical connector including: a connector component electrically coupled to the PCB, the connector component having a nonconductive body contacting and supported by the first major surface of the PCB; and a further PCB having a first major surface and an opposite second major surface, wherein the electrical connector electrically connects the further PCB to the PCB, wherein the electrical connector further includes: a further connector component electrically coupled to the second major surface of the further PCB, wherein the second major surface of the further PCB includes a plurality of electrical contacts, and wherein the further connector component includes a plurality of corresponding electrical contacts, the corresponding electrical contacts of the further connector component being adapted to engage the electrical contacts of the further PCB to electrically couple the further connector component to the further PCB, wherein the plurality of electrical contacts of the further PCB is a land grid array (LGA), wherein the plurality of corresponding electrical contacts of the further connector component is a ball grid array (BGA), and wherein the BGA is electrically coupled to the LGA by way of soldering.
