Issues with Current Holder Technology
Today's array of coin cell holders is hardly up to the challenges presented by the ever-increasing array of portable devices. With consumers expecting handheld gadgets to work perfectly anywhere at any time, engineers are presented with some unique problems.
Vibration - Heat - Shock - Humidity - Corrosion - Pressure
These real-world conditions cause device failures, frustrated customers, and higher support costs for suppliers. Without a reliable and continuous supply of current, an electronic device's operation will be interrupted and the system could be damaged. Repeated, forceful battery insertion and removal by consumers could cause stress fractures of plastic or metal components. In addition to all these design constraints placed on engineers, increasing competition on the global marketplace is forcing manufacturers to cut costs in any way possible. The pressure to rein in material costs is enormous. And yet scrimping on production quality leads to the issues described above, raising costs later in a product's lifecycle. Faced with the two seemingly contradictory demands of quality and cost, what is the electronics manufacturer to do?
