Abstract

A card-in type connector is to be inserted into an electronic device in order to add a memory function to the electronic device. A contact to be contacted with a memory card is disposed within a thin and flat type insulative case into which the memory card is withdrawably inserted and, a pair of spaced apart, parallel cantilever arms extend forwardly from a distal end of the thin and flat type insulative case. A wiring board is interposed between the cantilever arms and an end portion of the contact is connected to a rear end portion of the wiring board by soldering. A connecting device to be withdrawably inserted into a connecting device on the electronic device side is interposed between front end portions of the cantilever arms, and an end portion of a contact of the connecting device is connected to a front end portion of the wiring board by soldering.
