A memory card comprising a first main surface and a second main surface opposing each other, and including a printed circuit board (PCB) constituting the first main surface, the PCB including a plurality of first external connection terminals, the plurality of first external connection terminals exposed on the first main surface, a plurality of memory devices stacked on the PCB, a memory controller configured to control the plurality of memory devices, a molding layer encapsulating the plurality of memory devices and the memory controller, the molding layer constituting the second main surface, and one or more second external connection terminals electrically connected to the memory controller, the one or more second external connection terminals embedded in the molding layer and exposed by the molding layer on the second main surface may be provided.

Memory card and memory card socket

A memory card and an electronic system including the memory card. The memory card includes: a substrate having two pairs of edges, in which the edges of each pair face each other; a plurality of first row terminals that are arranged adjacent to an edge at an insertion side of the substrate and include a first voltage power terminal; a plurality of second row terminals that are spaced farther apart from the edge at the insertion side than the plurality of first row terminals and include a power terminal of a second voltage. According to the memory card, efficient use of an area may be maximized and an electrically stable power supply may be provided.

Memory card

A memory card includes a substrate, first row terminals and second row terminals. The substrate has a first pair of side edges extending in a first direction and a second pair of side edges extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The first row terminals are arranged adjacent to an insertion side edge of the substrate, the first row terminals including a first power terminal, the insertion side edge being one of the first pair of side edges. The second row terminals are arranged further from the insertion side edge than the first row terminals, the second row terminals including a second power terminal. At least one recessed terminal among the first and second row terminals includes a recess area in an exposed surface of the at least one terminal.

Memory card and electronic apparatus including the same

A memory card is provided to include a substrate having two pairs of edges facing each other, a plurality of first row terminals that are arranged adjacent to an edge at an insertion side of the substrate and include a first voltage power terminal for applying a first voltage and a first ground terminal, a plurality of second row terminals that are spaced farther apart from the edge at the insertion side than the plurality of first row terminals and include a second voltage power terminal for applying a second voltage and first data terminals, and a plurality of third row terminals that are spaced farther apart from the edge at the insertion side than the plurality of second row terminals and include second data terminals.

Provided is a memory card, which includes two pairs of opposite edges, first row terminals arranged adjacent to an insertion-side edge of the memory card, and second row terminals arranged apart from the insertion-side edge of the memory card. The memory card can be easily reset in terms of software without controlling power supply in terms of hardware. Also, the memory card can be smoothly attached and detached during insertion of the memory card into a socket and reduce damage to a device.

Memory card having multi-row terminals

A memory card includes a substrate, first row terminals and second row terminals. The substrate has a first pair of side edges extending in a first direction and a second pair of side edges extending in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The first row terminals are arranged adjacent to an insertion side edge of the substrate, the first row terminals including a first power terminal, the insertion side edge being one of the first pair of side edges. The second row terminals are arranged further from the insertion side edge than the first row terminals, the second row terminals including a second power terminal. At least one terminal among the first and second row terminals includes a recess area in an exposed surface of the at least one terminal.

A memory card adapter includes a body having a set of contact pins. The set of contact pins include input pins and output pins implemented in a pin-to-pin structure. The input pins connect with pins of an inserted memory card and the output pins connect with an external socket. The body includes a bottom lead adapted to support the main body, and a top lead adapted to be combined with the bottom lead. The body includes a fixing substance adapted to combine with the contact pins. The body includes a conduction plate on a top surface or a bottom surface of the fixing substance, where the conduction plate is connected to at least one of the contact pins.

Memory card adapter

A data processing apparatus includes an electronic device configured to store data and instructions; a memory card; and a memory card socket in which the memory card is inserted. In certain disclosed systems and methods, the memory card socket includes: an insertion portion through which the memory card is inserted; a lock portion formed around an edge of the insertion portion, and that is configured to control attaching and detaching of the memory card based on instructions received from the electronic device; and a main body including the insertion portion and the lock portion and configured to accommodate the memory card via the insertion portion.
