The FH19C and FH19SC Series are low-profile, 0.5mm pitch Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) and Flexible Flat Cable (FFC) ZIF connectors designed for miniaturized portable equipment and personal mobile devices. These connectors offer a height of 0.9mm and a width of 3mm, significantly reducing PCB footprint and weight compared to previous models. Key features include a flip-lock actuator system for easy and reliable operation, the ability for conductive traces to run under the connector due to a solid bottom surface, and compatibility with 0.2mm and 0.3mm thick FPC/FFC. They are suitable for automated assembly with flat upper surfaces and tape-and-reel packaging, and are available in contact counts from 4 to 50. These connectors also satisfy Halogen-free requirements.
