046214011000800/+ – 11-Position FFC/FPC Vertical Connector with ZIF Lock – Kyocera AVX

Ensure reliable flex circuit connections in space-constrained designs with this Kyocera AVX surface-mount FFC/FPC connector. Engineered for high-density applications, it features Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) actuation and a compact 0.5mm pitch for secure, low-profile interconnections. PCX delivers genuine Kyocera AVX components with rapid shipping and technical support.

Key Features

• 11 Positions at 0.50mm Pitch for high-density layouts
• ZIF Slide Lock mechanism for secure, strain-free cable retention
• Vertical Orientation (1-Sided Contacts) with 4.10mm board height
• 0.4A Current & 50V Rating for signal/power transmission
• Surface Mount (SMT) design with solder retention pads
• Wide Temperature Range: -40°C to 85°C

Technical Specifications

This FFC/FPC connector assembly accepts flat flexible cables up to 0.30mm thick with tapered ends. The copper alloy contacts feature tin-copper plating for corrosion resistance, housed in durable thermoplastic. The slide-lock ZIF mechanism eliminates insertion force while preventing accidental disconnects. Solder termination ensures robust PCB mounting in automated assembly processes.

Typical Applications

• Consumer electronics (cameras, wearables, portable devices)
• Display interfaces (LCD/LED panels, touchscreens)
• Medical monitoring equipment
• Industrial control systems
• Automotive infotainment modules

About FFC/FPC Connectors

Flat Flexible Cable (FFC) and Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) connectors enable high-speed data transfer between PCBs and flexible circuits in compact devices. Their ultra-low profiles and fine pitches are essential for modern miniaturized electronics where space optimization is critical.

ZIF variants like this Kyocera AVX model eliminate insertion stress on delicate flex cables while providing positive locking. This prevents contact damage during assembly/vibration, significantly improving product lifespan in high-mobility applications like robotics or handheld instruments.

Packaging

Supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging for automated SMT assembly. Compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment.

FAQs

Question: What cable thickness does this connector support?
Answer: Designed for FFC/FPC cables up to 0.30mm thick.

Question: Is the ZIF lock mechanism tool-actuated?
