(under the class definition) Device for directing contacts of a very small panel circuit arrangement on which the circuit elements are preplaced and fixed including a first and a second straight row of three or more contacts on each side of two opposite marginal extremities.
(1) Note. This subclass does not require that the claim set forth a contact; rather, included herein is a structure to be used in conjunction with a DIP wherein neither the DIP nor mating structure is claimed.
(2) Note. The member with which the device of this subclass is to be used includes circuitry that is integrated as a package in which the circuitry is not readily accessible.
(3) Note. "Very small panel circuit arrangement", implies that the member is a prefabricated sheetlike part on which circuit elements are preplaced and fixed, (i.e., a printed circuit) and that circuitry is so small that, if it were exposed, its details could not ordinarily be seen by the naked eye.
