The CCM02 Series connectors with landing contacts are dedicated for applications where the reader usage is high and the life span of the card is a key consideration. A connector with contacts which land on the card, rather than slide over it, should be specified so as to minimize card wear. The CCM02 has been redesigned to give an even higher performance in a compact, affordable package.

Features

• 500,000 card insertion cycles.

• The contacts do not touch the card until it is almost fully inserted – A minimal wiping action removes any non-conductive material.

• The connector has been designed to give a positive indication once the card has been fully inserted.

• The reduced size of the contact base saves PCB space, making the connector more stable during surface mounting, and creates an air gap between the contacts and card entry slot, which reduces the risk of an electrostatic transfer to the PCB.

• For added reliability, the integrated card end-travel switch, which is normally open, is sealed against dust and grit.

• By using an inlay finish in the contact area, the life of the precious metal is extended by more than 10 times that of standard gold plating.

• The contact area is spooned to reduce the risk of accidental (or deliberate) damage and to optimize the electrical connection with the card.

• Snap-locks underneath the molding position and hold the connector on the PCB, and give additional support to the contact terminals.

• The plastic moldings are made from a high temperature thermoplastic suited for infrared and convection soldering processes.
