Features
1. FPC low insertion force and high holding force
Hirose Electric's unique low insertion force (LIF) design
(patents pending) improves the Flexible Printed Circuit
(FPC) holding force after insertion.
FPC insertion force:Reduced approximately 36%
(as compared with FH18 Series connectors).
FPC holding force:Improvement of approximately 22%
(as compared with FH18 Series connectors).
2. Temporary hold of FPC
There is no need to hold the FPC after insertion in the
connector. The connector will hold it in correct position,
allowing closing of the actuator.
When the actuator is opened
3. Easy board mounting
The surface mounted termination of the contacts is staggered on
0.6 mm centers, positioned on front and back of the connector.
Bottom of the connector is completely insulated, allowing
conductive traces on PCB to run under the connector.
4. Proven Flip-lock Actuator assures easy and
reliable operation
Rotating actuator permits easy insertion and reliable connection
with the FPC. Tactile sensation confirms complete mechanical
locking of the actuator and the electrical connection.
5. Variations to suit different mounting areas
Available with lead and leadless type of terminations
(for opposing FPC insertion side).
6. Designed for placement with automatic equipment
Flat top surface allows pick-up with vacuum nozzles.
Packaged in embossed tape, on reel. One reel contains 2,500 pieces.
Temporary hold of FPC
7. Accepts 0.2mm thick FPC
8. Variety of contact positions
Available with 15,17,21,23,25,27,31,33,39,45,51,61and 71 pos.
8. Environmental considerations
Plating is lead-free in order to protect environment.

Applications
Mobile phones, PDA’s, digital cameras, digital video
cameras and other compact devices requiring
interconnections of the main circuit with the LCD,
plasma display (PDP), camera module, or other devices.
