Abstract
Abstract A printed circuit board and system. The board is of insulating material with circuit patterns secured to each side of the board and terminals emanating from the circuit patterns along two edges of the board. The system includes the board with a circuit or component connected by the circuit patterns to the terminals, a first connector interconnecting at least two of the terminals at one edge of the board for internal circuit or component wiring, and a second connector connected to at least two of the terminals at the other edge of the board for external wiring.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
175 words
A printed circuit board comprising, in combination, a board of insulating material, circuit patterns secured to each side of the board, and terminals emanating from the circuit patterns along two edges of the board, the board defining at least one set of openings therethrough for the reception of a plug-in circuit or component and the circuit patterns and the terminals being substantially flush with the sides of the board, a plurality of the openings being connected by the circuit patterns to terminals at one of the board edges and a plurality of the openings being connected to terminals at the other of the board edges, the terminals being wider than the circuit patterns and suitable for receiving plug-in or plug-on connectors, the board defining a second set of openings connected by the circuit patterns to said at least one set of openings, and electrical conducting means filling the second set of openings, whereby each opening of said at least one set of openings is connected to the circuit patterns on both sides of the board.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
175 words
A printed circuit board comprising, in combination, a board of insulating material, circuit patterns secured to each side of the board, and terminals emanating from the circuit patterns along two edges of the board, the board defining at least one set of openings therethrough for the reception of a plug-in circuit or component and the circuit patterns and the terminals being substantially flush with the sides of the board, a plurality of the openings being connected by the circuit patterns to terminals at one of the board edges and a plurality of the openings being connected to terminals at the other of the board edges, the terminals being wider than the circuit patterns and suitable for receiving plug-in or plug-on connectors, the board defining a second set of openings connected by the circuit patterns to said at least one set of openings, and electrical conducting means filling the second set of openings, whereby each opening of said at least one set of openings is connected to the circuit patterns on both sides of the board.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
47 words
A printed circuit board according to claim 1 wherein one of the terminals at one of the board edges and one of the terminals at the other of the board edges are ground terminals connected by the circuit patterns to said at least one set of openings.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
47 words
A printed circuit board according to claim 1 wherein one of the terminals at one of the board edges and one of the terminals at the other of the board edges are voltage terminals connected by the circuit patterns to said at least one set of openings.
