PCT No. PCT/IB95/00388 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 27, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 27, 1996 PCT Filed May 22, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO95/35550 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 28, 1995A SIM card connector (2) comprises a housing (4) and two sets (8, 10) of terminals (6). The terminal sets (8, 10) are held together by overmoulded support portions (18) which are then mounted to receiving cavities (44) of the housing (4). The terminals (6) are interleaved and angled for a compact disposition for electrical connection to parallel rows of aligned SIM card contact pads. Sides (52, 54) of the outer periphery (50) of the housing (4) are inclined at the same angle as the terminals (6) such than a small connector surface are is provided. The principal advantage is therefore minimum surface area requirements when mounted to a PC Board. Further advantages are the few number of parts, and simple, reliable and cost-effective design. |
