Abstract

A disclosed card connector includes a housing main unit including a card insertion slot through which a card is inserted into the housing main unit in a predetermined direction; a slider attached to the housing main unit in such a manner as to be slidable along the predetermined direction, wherein the card inserted into the housing main unit is ejected by moving together with the slider as a spring force moves the slider from a position away from the card insertion slot toward the card insertion slot; and a slider braking unit configured to apply a braking force to the slider in such a manner that the braking force increases as the slider moves toward the card insertion slot.
