94898-502LF

The 94898-502LF is a product from the Memory Connectors - PC Card Sockets range of products. It is a PC Card Socket designed for applications requiring mobility, in accordance with industry standards. The 94898-502LF allows for the connection and disconnection of cards in public or private applications, for the usage in applications such as communication, office automation, and digital mobile networks.

The 94898-502LF is a miniature card socket which is designed for fast and secure connection and disconnection. It consists of contacts which are made of phosphor bronze with 30u gold plating, for robust and reliable contact. Its design is built to be robust in order to stand up to multiple insertions and removal cycles, with improved contact pin strength also providing additional insertion forces. It also incorporates an innovative retension device with a two-stage lock button, allowing for secure connections even when there is vibration or shock present.

The 94898-502LF includes three connections for external power and ground, with tie\'s between power and grounds and designations for the 24 contact positions. The product design of the 94898-502LF security measures for user safety, such as the snap-in holder feature, which requires two hands to be used for card insertion or removal.

Typical applications for the 94898-502LF include GSM SIM card, Cellular Package, PC Cards, Memory Cards, Card Phones, Trading Cards, Smart Cars, and Communications systems. The 94898-502LF types are designed to be used for laptop computers and also in communication products and embedded systems.

Working Principle

The working principle of the 94898-502LF is based on the mechanical and electrical electrical connection of the SIM card. The mechanical connection of the SIM card is done by the insertion of the card into the socket. This is done by pushing the card into the socket using the spring-loaded retension mechanism. The electrical connections are then made through a series of spring loaded contact pins, which contact the contact pads on the SIM card.

When the card is fully inserted it is held firmly in place by a two- stage lock mechanism, which locks the card into the socket and prevents it from coming out when force is applied in the direction of removal. When the force is released the card can be removed without damaging the card or the socket. The electrical connection is also maintained due to the spring loaded contact pins which maintain constant contact with the contact pads on the card.

The 94898-502LF is designed so that has an accurate positioning and connection system as well as a low contact resistance and lifetime reliability. This allows for continuous reliable connections over the long term, even when being subjected to multiple insertions and removal cycles. This results in high functioning, robust and reliable cushion connections.
