Abstract: This document describes apparatuses that include integrated memory card ejector and sensor ports. A first described aspect of an apparatus includes a memory card connector, a housing, and a carriage. The memory card connector includes a receiver configured to receive a memory card and an ejector assembly configured to eject the memory card from the receiver. The housing includes a sidewall that includes a memory card slot and an integrated port. The integrated port defines an outside opening of the housing. The carriage includes a slide portion slidably positioned in the integrated port and is accessible through the outside opening of the housing. The carriage includes a carriage body having an outer port, a sensor port, and an acoustic chamber defined within the carriage body. The carriage includes an ejector connector configured for contacting the ejector assembly and a sensor assembly mounted on the carriage at the sensor port.

Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described that implement housing assemblies for computing devices. In aspects, a housing assembly includes an elongated side-frame element comprising a first metal and a cast internal frame comprising a second, different, metal. The melting point of the first metal is higher than the melting point of the second metal. The elongated side-frame element may include at least one elongated slot disposed on an inner surface of the elongated side-frame element, with the elongated slot oriented parallel to the elongated side-frame element. The slot may include at least one undercut. The cast internal frame may include an elongated interlock flange that extends from an internal frame body. The elongated interlock flange received into the elongated slot of the elongated side-frame element. This document also describes methods for manufacturing a computing device housing assembly and a product-by-process.
