FH12 Series FPC Connector 0.5mm Pitch Including HRS FH12-16S-0.5SVA 54 with Phosphor Bronze Contacts
FH12 Series 0.5mm and 1mm Pitch FPC/FFC Connectors
The FH12 Series connectors offer a rotating one-touch ZIF mechanism for easy operation and a clear tactile click for confirmation of mating. Designed for high-density mounting, these connectors require less space than slide locking types and can be mounted in the center of the PCB. Available in top contact, bottom contact, and vertical mount configurations, with 0.5mm and 1mm pitch options. The FH12S version features a reinforced actuator for enhanced durability.
