Header type connector for microSD Cards

30 May 2007 Interconnection

ALPS has developed its SCHD Series Header Type Connectors for microSD Cards, which are widely used with mobile telephones, digital cameras and other compact mobile devices.

This header type connector for microSD Cards is claimed to be the thinnest in the industry at only 1,6 mm.

The connector houses a microSD Card that can be manually inserted into or ejected from the connector. The connector itself is designed to have a height almost equal to that of the microSD Cards, which measure 11 x 15 x 1 mm (W x D x H).

In addition, a card guide structure not only facilitates the smooth insertion of memory cards into the connector, but also protects both the circuit board and connector terminals. Often, when a memory card is inserted into a slot, it is at a random angle and may make contact with circuit boards and terminals and damage them, which is precisely what the card guide structure is designed to prevent. The risk of terminals detaching from circuit boards is thus avoided.
