EDN, June, 2001

Connectors suit secure digital memory cards. This line of connectors lets you leverage SD (secure-digital) memory cards to maximize memory capacity and flexibility in compact and portable electronic equipment. The connectors accept the industry-standard miniature flash-memory cards with maximum storage densities of 64 Mbytes. Card-detection and write-protection switch functions enable secure downloading of digital data. The nine-circuit devices come in top- and bottom-mount styles and measure just 3.10 mm (0.122 in.) high. Rated at 0.5A, the connectors withstand as many as 10,000 mating cycles. The SD card connectors cost approximately $2.50 (50,000). Molex Inc, 1-800-786-6539, www.molex.com.
