Memory card connector with switch terminals having improved contacts
A memory card connector includes an insulative housing having a rear terminal-mounting section and at least one side wall section extending forwardly from one end of the rear section defining a card-receiving space therebetween. A first conductive terminal is mounted on the housing and has a first contact portion with a first protrusion thereon. A second conductive terminal is mounted on the housing and has a second contact portion with a second protrusion thereon. The contact portions of the terminals are normally spaced from each other but are juxtaposed so that the contact portions and the protrusions are mutually engaged in response to a memory card inserted into the card-receiving space. The protrusions are offset from each other, whereby the first protrusion of the first terminal engages the second contact portion of the second terminal, and the second protrusion of the second terminal engages the first contact portion of the first terminal.
