Abstract: A card connector is disclosed for connecting a memory card. The card connector includes a connecting section for receiving a mating section of a memory card, a guide section that extends from a side of the connecting section for guiding a memory card so that a mating section of the memory card mates with the connecting section, and a that is tab received in the guide section and has a base section, an elastic section that extends from a side of the base section for elastically pressing against a memory card, and a grounding section below the base section for providing electrostatic discharge grounding.

Abstract: A card connector is used to connect a memory card, such as CF card or CFast card. The card connector includes a housing; a connecting section for receiving a mating section of the memory card; and a pair of guide sections located on opposite lateral sides of the connecting section to guide the memory card, so that the mating section of the memory card can be connected in a mating engagement with the connecting section of the card connector. A tab is further received within each guide section. The tab has a base section, a pair of elastic sections extending from the sides of the base section, and a grounding section below the base section, wherein each of the two elastic sections protrudes from at least one slot provided in the inner side of each guide section respectively and the grounding section protrudes from a hole provided in the bottom of each guide section. The tabs can provide maximum lifting retention and shear forces due to the memory card insertion and extraction.
