Abstract

An electronic card connector including a plastic main body having a carrier board section. An electronic card receiving region is defined between two electronic card receiving channels. An entrance of the electronic card receiving region is formed at front end of the plastic main body. A circuit board is mounted between the sidewalls of the plastic main body. The circuit board includes multiple contact terminals extending into the electronic card receiving region for contacting with a corresponding contact of the chip of an electronic card inserted in the electronic card receiving region. The circuit board further includes multiple adaptive terminals. A first end of each adaptive terminal is connected to a corresponding contact terminal via a printed circuit. A second end of the adaptive terminal is connected with a circuit board of the card reader or plugged in a socket of the circuit board of the card reader.
