Micro SIM card connectors
31 January 2017
Interconnection
Now available from AVX are the 5236 Series micro SIM memory card connectors from Kyocera Connector Products. Available in both single- and dual-card versions, both of which share a common PCB layout and feature 33% more signal pins than comparable connectors: eight for the single and 16 for the double – these connectors feature a shell guide mechanism that prevents incorrect card insertion and unwanted ejection, enabling the secure operation of μSIM cards in mobile electronics, including smartphones and tablet PCs.
Compact and low in profile, with a minimal 0,7 mm pitch, the series features a normally closed internal card switch that detects the presence of an inserted card to lower overall power consumption, as well as a user-friendly push-push, spring-eject mechanism with an assured card ejection distance of 3,8 mm for improved workability.
Rated for 5 V / 0,5 A per contact and operating temperatures spanning -40°C to +85°C, 5236 Series μSIM card connectors are RoHS compliant, halogen-free, and guaranteed for 3000 mating cycles. The single-card version measures 16,2 x 14,4 x 1,30 mm (L x W x H), and the dual-card version measures 17,22 x 16,28 x 2,75 mm.
