5535659-2

Introduction: PC Card Sockets are a variety of memory connector designed to support applications such as portable computers, cellular phones, and other digital consumer electronics. The 5535659-2 is a PC Card socket specifically designed to support PC Cards with the PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card International Association) standard. This PCMCIA card socket has been designed to be compliant with the PC Card 5.0 standard and is electrically compatible with Type II cards.

Application Fields: The 5535659-2 is suited for applications such as portable disk drives, digital cameras, modems, and media cards. It is used in devices such as PDAs, mobile computing devices, digital datacards, digital cameras, digital audio players, and network cards in portable computers. Additionally, the 5535659-2 is used to connect and transfer digital music, videos, and other types of data between computers and mobile devices.

Working Principle: ON Semiconductor’s 5535659-2PC Card Socket is a 16-pin socket that features a 3.6mm pitch, single row right angle pin header. The 5535659-2 PC Card socket works by establishing an electrical connection between two components. The card socket is connected to the printed circuit board via two rows of pins on the underside of the card socket. These pins on the card socket correspond to contacts on the PC Card. When the card is inserted into the socket, the pins on the socket contact the contacts on the card and an electrical connection is established. This connection allows for data transfer between the PC Card and connected device.

Conclusion: The ON Semiconductor 5535659-2 PC Card Socket is designed to support PCMCIA- and PC Card 5.0- compliant devices. This memory connector offers a reliable electrical connection between two components, making it well suited for a variety of applications, from mobile computing devices and digital cameras to PDAs and media cards. By providing an electrical connection, this PC Card socket facilitates data transfer between the device to which it is connected and a PC Card.
