Abstract: An electrical connector includes a base plate with an accommodating groove, an integrated circuit board, and a card-ejecting device. The accommodating groove has an open front end and a closed rear end, and is adapted to receive a smart card therein. The smart card has a front end extending from the front end of the groove, and a rear end that is spaced apart from the rear end of the groove at a small distance. When the front end of the smart card is pressed inwardly to move the rear end of the smart card to the rear end of the groove, and is subsequently released, the card-ejecting device pushes the smart card outwardly relative to the connector. Accordingly, the smart card can be ejected with ease.
