In summary, TE’s 3-in-2 card connector offers features such as anti-buckling contact design, providing a more robust solution than competitive products. An advantage of this feature is that it helps prevent damage to contacts when the card is inserted and removed from the connector. Other features include pin-push insertion, mechanical lock function, and a tray detect switch, which all contribute to the product’s reliable performance. The card connector features a space-efficient design with two cavities, capable of accepting two SIM cards to store customer data or one SIM card and one micro SD card. This design saves about 20% printed circuit board space compared with other combination-type card connectors. In addition, better coplanarity control helps ensure fewer defects during the manufacturing process and makes the soldering process easier for the customer.
