Features

1. Space saving 0.3 mm pitch and low-
profile top contact connector
Actuator
This top contact connector delivers a 0.65 mm
height, mounting depth of 3.08 mm and depth 3.55
mm with the actuator closed. All of this helps to
maximize PCB space.
2. FPC retention secured, despite the low profile
Improved FPC horizontal retention by reinforcing the
clasp temporary retention mechanism.
3. Reduces production costs
FPC
The actuator is delivered in the open position and
allows you to immediately insert the FPC.
4. Favorable FPC insertion, despite the low profile
- The unique clasp form means an audible click when
the FPC goes over the clasp, while also preventing
incorrect (diagonal) insertion of FPC.
Fig.2
- Despite the temporary retention mechanism of the
reinforcing clasp, horizontal insertion of FPC is
possible.
With actuator locked
5. Insertion check window
There is a cutout on the housing that allows you
to visually inspect the FPC to make sure that it is
locked into place, preventing incorrect insertion
of the FPC.
6. Accepts 0.12 mm thick FPC
The connector accepts 0.12 mm thick FPC, standard
thickness for 0.3 mm pitch low-profile connectors.
7. Fully molded structure aids PCB layout
The bottom of this connector is enclosed by a fully
molded structure that protects the contacts and
removes any restrictions from PCB patterning and
layout design.

8. Halogen-free
The connector does not use chlorine and bromine
exceeding standard limits.
Cutout window on
housing’s top surface
Defined in accordance with IEC61249-2-21 Br: 900 ppm
max, Cl: 900 ppm max, Br + Cl: 1,500 ppm max.

9. Supports automatic pick-n-place
mounting
Offered in tape and reel packaging that is
compatible with automatic machine mounting.
(5,000 pieces per reel). The standard packaging is
5,000 pieces per reel, but it is also offered in a 500
piece reel. (The outer diameter of the reel will be
Ø180 mm in this case.)
