Abstract
An IC card connector apparatus comprises a header connector (,) and a pair of electrical sockets (,) respectively mounted on upper and lower surfaces of a circuit board (,). The header connector includes an insulative housing (,) defining a space (,) for receiving an IC card (,) therein. The housing has a mating face (,) adjacent to the space and a mounting face (,) opposite the mating face. Two arrays of terminals (,) are retained in the housing and extend through the mating face and the mounting face. Each socket includes an insulative housing (,) and a number of contacts (,) connected to the circuit board by surface mount technology. In installation, the terminals of the header connector are inserted into the sockets and mate with the corresponding contacts thereof. Thus, signals can be reliably transmitted between the IC card received in the header connector and the circuit board.
