Abstract
An electronic card connector (1) for electrically connecting an electronic card to a printed circuit board (PCB) includes a dielectric housing (10) including a bottom wall (14), a contact module (20) having a dielectric base (21) receiving a plurality of conductive contacts (22) and a pair of eaves (212) protruding laterally from two opposite sides of the base. A through opening (11) is defined in the bottom wall and a pair of holding steps (12) protrude inwardly from two opposite sides of the opening. The contact module is embedded in the opening of the housing, the two eaves respectively supported on the pair of holding steps and the base falling into the opening.
