C702 10M008 230 40

Memory Connectors - PC Card Sockets are one of the most critical components for PCs. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of C702 10M008 230 40.

Compatibility

The C702 10M008 230 40 is used as a connector for PC Card type II sockets and can be used in mini-PCI and cardBUS systems. It is compatible with 3.3V, 5V, or 12V operating voltages, with card ejectors with both horizontal and vertical slots. It provides a reliable connector solution on tiny motherboards with a low profile design and can be used on small size boards.

Features

The C702 10M008 230 40 has a wide range of features, including two-piece ejectors, ejector locking, and anti-rollover features, which are designed for maximum performance. It also has contact termination with an integral locking bar and low insertion force, and for superior signal integrity, plated gold over nickel has been applied on all contact points. The unique design of the card ejectors provides additional resistance and support with the removal of the card and precision slot alignment guaranteeing higher retention force and better ejection performance.

Mechanical Structure and Assembly

The C702 10M008 230 40 has a simple design and is easy to assemble. The connector contains several components including a housing, a base, and a pair of contact screws. The housing and base are made of high-quality plastic and the contacts are made of copper-plated gold to resist corrosion. Both the housing and base have mating surfaces to prevent the connector from rotating and ensure correct alignment with the PC card.

Installation

The C702 10M008 230 40 is easy to install onto motherboards and other peripheral devices. It can be installed directly onto the board using mounting holes or screws. For a more secure connection, the connectors can be soldered to the board or the leads can be bent into contact points for a snug fit. To ensure proper connection and signal integrity, it is important to use the correct number of contact points and to properly secure the connector to the board.

Working Principle

When a PC card is inserted into the C702 10M008 230 40, the contacts on the card will be aligned with the contact points of the connector. When a voltage is applied, electrical current will flow from the card to the connector and the card will be able to communicate with the motherboard. As the card is pulled out, the contact points will no longer touch and the current will stop flowing.

Conclusion

The C702 10M008 230 40 is a reliable and easy-to-install Memory Connector that is suitable for a variety of applications. Its low profile design and simple assembly make it ideal for small boards, and the precision design of the card ejectors ensures higher retention force and improved ejection performance. Additionally, the unique design of the connector and the use of plated gold over nickel on all contact points provides superior signal integrity.
