■ Features
1. Low-profile 0.5mm pitch FPC, FFC Connectors
   Miniaturization of portable equipment and personal mobile devices has created increased demand for a low profile, high density, and high reliability connectors.
   *The design of this connector has been made thinner and smaller, with a height of 0.9mm and width of 3mm.
      [As of August 2002, this is the smallest connector of this type available on the market !]
   *PCB footprint: Reduced approximately 48% (as compared with Hirose Electric's 0.5mm pitch FH12 Series connectors)
   *Connector weight: Reduced approximately 78% (as compared with Hirose Electric's 0.5mm pitch FH12 Series connectors)
2. Conductive traces on the PCB can be designed to run under the connector
   All bottom surface of the connector is solid, without any exposure of the contact.
3. Proven Flip-Lock Actuator System assures easy and reliable operation
   Rotating actuator permits easy insertion and reliable connection with the FPC & FFC.
   Tactile sensation confirms complete mechanical locking of the actuator and the electrical connection.
4. Accepts 0.2mm & 0.3mm thick FPC, FFC
   Accepts 0.2mm & 0.3mm thick FPC, FFC, easy inserted in the connector.
   The connector will also terminate successfully with 0.2mm thick Flat Flexible Cable (FFC).
5. Designed for placement with automatic equipment
   Packaged in embossed tape, on reel. One reel contains 5,000 pieces.
6. Environmental considerations
   The center cores of the embossed tape reels are made of    paper, unlike typical cores made of styrofoam.

  
■ Applications
   Notebook PC’s, PDA’s, digital cameras and other compact devices requiring interconnections of the main circuit board with the LCD, plasma display (PDP), HDD or other devices.
