FA10 Series

JAE's FA10 Series FPC Connector is the market's first FPC connector to use a single-action insertion method. The FA10 Series features a LIF (low-insertion-force) top- and bottom-contact type FPC connector that does not use a lever/actuator in order to secure the mating FPC. This space-saving connector offers a 0.5mm pitch, 0.9mm overall height, and 3.2mm depth with tapered guides in the insertion area to prevent misalignment, while the friction lock and terminals at the front and back of the connector improve board retention strength.

Features

• Space-saving FPC connector with 0.5mm pitch, 0.9mm overall height and 3.2mm depth
