10055263-00BLF

PC card sockets, also called PCMCIA card sockets, are a type of memory connectors which are widely used in many different applications. The 10055263-00BLF PCMCIA card socket is one example of this type of connector.

The 10055263-00BLF PC card socket is a low profile, high-speed, Type I, II, and III PC card socket connector. It is constructed from a high temperature thermoplastic material and features a proven, dual-row design with an incorporated guide. The contacts, which are BeCu plated, fit into the PCMCIA connector at a short-to-long pitch. It also features an interlocking design which ensures secure mating and proper engagement of both parts.

The 10055263-00BLF PC card socket finds applications in a wide range of devices including laptops, notebooks, digital cameras, embedded systems, PDAs, printers, gaming consoles, and drives.

The working principle of the 10055263-00BLF PC card socket involves a few different parts. The first part is the connector shell which is a snap-fit design that secures the socket to the board. The second part is the contact block which is PBT material and is terminated with tin plated contacts. The third part is a connector spring which acts as a dust seal and a spring force to ensure that the contact block mates securely to the connector.

The 10055263-00BLF PC card socket also features two contact leverage arms which provide additional contact force and ensure proper alignment of the contact block. In addition, the mating force of the contact arms enables secure mating of the contact block in the PC card socket.

The 10055263-00BLF PC card socket is also designed with a card retention mechanism which prevents accidental card ejection. This mechanism is controlled with a manual eject button that uses a plunger and spring to relase the card when the button is pressed. This mechanism also works to ensure that the PCMCIA card is ejected cleanly.

The 10055263-00BLF PCMCIA card socket is a widely used memory connector in a variety of applications. It features a snap-fit design, contact block, connector springs, contact leverage arms, and a card retention mechanism to ensure secure and reliable connections between the PC card socket and the PCMCIA card.
