(54 pos. shown) 1.2mm Overview Continuous miniaturization of personal mobile devices 24.2mm 4.0mm created a need for a low profile, high density interconnection system.In the same time, the demand for higher currents and higher reliability Flexible Printed Circuits has also increased. Hirose meets all these challenges with introduction of this connector. FPC temporary retention Features 1. Low profile, small PCB mounting area, weight reduction Protruding only 1.2 mm above the board the connector occupies 50% less area than comparable type having contacts spaced on 0.5 mm centers. Creative design, coupled with high manufacturing capabilities resulted in extremely low weight of the connector. FPC temporary hold protrusion 2. Higher current carrying capacity Contact spacing of 0.4 mm allows production of wider and simpler pattern of conductive traces on FPC. FPC notch 3. FPC temporary hold and verification of correct insertion The connector has built-in FPC hold protrusions allowing the tactile feel of the correct FPC insertion and holding it in position before closing of the actuator. Temporary hold-FPC fully inserted 4. Uses standard 0.2 mm thick FPC 5. One-finger operation of the actuator Proven (in several other Hirose s connectors ) Flip-Lock Wider FPC conductive traces rotating actuator assures reliable mechanical and electrical connection with FPC, confirming it with a definite tactile feel. 0.4mm 0.3mm 0.27mm 0.1mm 6. Board placement with automatic equipment Flat top surface and packaging on the tape-and reel allows the use of vacuum nozzles. Standard reel contains 2,500 connectors. 7. Environmental considerations The center cores of the embossed tape reels are made of Styrofoam. 8. Variety of contact positions 0.4 mm pitch FPC 0.3 mm pitch FPC Available with 10, 40, 50,54, 57 and 60 pos. Metal fittings on each side do not protrude Applications out allowing side-by- Mobile phones, PDAs, digital cameras, digital video Metal side mounting of the cameras, LCD connections, plasma displays (PDP), camera fitting connectors or closer modules and other compact devices requiring Flexible component placement.
