ABSTRACT:
An electrical interface (210) for an electronic device (200) includes an integral connector portion (215). The connector portion (215) has protected connector contacts (220) which provide an electrical signal path to the internal circuitry of the device. The electrical interface (210) has a contact surface (112) disposed proximate to the connector portion (215) and interface contacts (117) electrically decoupled from the connector contacts (220). The contact surface (112) is responsive to a mechanical force, to electrically couple at least one of the interface contacts (117) to at least one of the connector contacts (220).
