A card connector system that detachably supports a PC card and
electrically connects the PC card to an electrical device. The system
includes a temperature sensor to monitor temperature of the PC card to
prevent the deleterious effect of heat generated by the PC card on the PC
card itself and the electrical device. The sensor detects the surface
temperature of the supported PC card and transmits the obtained
temperature information to the electrical device. In this case, it is
preferable that a transition board 33, electrically connected between the
PC card and the electrical device, is used to transmit the temperature
information.
