Abstract:
A card edge connector includes an insulating housing defining a mating slot, two rows of terminals and a grounding member. Each row of terminals includes grounding terminals and signal terminals. The grounding member includes a first grounding bar and a second grounding bar each defining an upper edge and a lower edge. A plurality of elastic tabs extends from the upper edge and contacting with corresponding grounding terminals. The first and second grounding sides are disposed vertically in a bottom and at an outer side of corresponding row of terminals, and extends along the longitudinal direction of the housing under a condition that the upper edges of the grounding sides are disposed below the inner bottom face of the mating slot. The upper edges are located below the inner bottom face of the mating slot.

Claim (Index 10):
A card edge connector comprising:\n a longitudinal insulating housing defining a mating slot opening upward and comprising two opposite long walls and a bottom commonly defining the mating slot, the mating slot defining an inner bottom face, each long wall defining a plurality of grooves through a bottom face of the insulating housing; two rows of terminals received and retained the grooves in the long walls, respectively, the terminal comprising a retaining portion retained the long wall, an elastic mating portion extending in the mating slot and a leg portion through the bottom face, each row of terminals comprising grounding terminals; a pair of long grounding bars, each defining an upper edge and a lower edge thereof and forming a plurality of elastic tabs, the elastic tabs extending from the upper edge and slant inward thus contacting with corresponding grounding terminals; wherein each of the long walls of the insulating housing defines a retaining slit at an outer side of the corresponding grooves, the retaining slits extend in a longitudinal direction of the insulating housing and through the bottom face of the insulating housing, the long grounding bars and the terminals are configured to have the grounding bars requisitely inserted in the retaining slits from the bottom face before the terminals are inserted in the grooves.
