The GC/GD Series provides a lineup of connectors for battery packs used in compact devices such as laptop PCs and handy terminals. Recent years have seen the development of battery packs featuring their own integrated circuits. The connectors of the GC/GD Series provide extremely-low-current connections for the exchange of integrated-circuit signals between battery packs and their host devices.
Despite their compact design, the GC and GD connectors provide ample contact stroke in order that looseness can be eliminated when battery packs are installed. Furthermore, the springs used in this series feature wiping functionality so that any motion thereof results in dirt and the like being removed from contact surfaces.
