Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a self-aligned board-to-board connector. A board-to-board connector that can provide blind mating is readily included in an electronic device and is readily manufactured. An example may provide a self-aligning board-to-board connector that provides a blind fit and includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector may include a first fastener secured to the first inner housing or housing portion. The second fastener may mate with the first fastener. The first connector may further include a housing, where the housing is flexibly connected to the first inner housing or housing portion, but constrained by a first fastener and a second fastener. This constraint may allow the first connector housing to move laterally and rotationally such that when the first connector and the second connector are mated, the first connector housing may be self-aligned to a second connector secured to a second inner housing or housing portion. The flexible circuit board may connect the c
