Each format consists of two stainless steel card shields, one (two) plastic end cap, and one 26 position
SMT receptacle connector.
FCI manufactures the ExpressCard module card kit without PCB. For this reason, this FCI specification
will only cover the specifications of the “empty” card kit, except for vibration, bend, torque and shock
tests. It is, in this area, different from the ExpressCard Standard and PC Card Standard.
The electrical tests need a PCB, In that case only, a dummy one is to be added on which a 26 position
SMT receptacle connector is soldered.
5.2 Material:
5.2.1 Receptacle Connector: Housing: High temperature thermoplastic, UL 94V-0 flame retardant.
Terminal: Copper Alloy, gold flash over contact area, lead-free soldering.
5.2.2 Metal Shield: SUS 304 Stainless Steel.
5.2.3 Plastic End Cap: ABS + PC, UL 94V-0 flame retardant.
5.3 Cosmetic Requirements:
The card shields must comply with the following cosmetic requirements:
Surface finish: matte / dull (not brushed).
The outside surfaces of the card shield must be free of scratches, dents, spots, finger prints,
cleaning residue or other irregularities.
The outside surfaces of plastic end cap must be free of scratches, flash, mark, blemish, protrusion,
weld-line, incomplete molding or other irregularities.
5.4 Dimensions:
The card kit dimensions must meet the requirements from the figures below, both for the
ExpressCard/34 card kit and the ExpressCard/54 card kit.
