0.50 mm Pitch, 17 Positions – Board Footprint and Signal Duty
The F300-1B7H1-11017-E100: Right-angle SMT orientation keeps the connector profile at 0.079" (2.00 mm) above the board – useful for parallel-PCB or mezzanine stacks where z-height is budgeted tight.
30 Mating Cycles with 1.97 µinch Gold – Field-Service Realities
Gold plating at 1.97 µinch (0.050 µm) on the contact face, combined with 30 mating cycles, means this connector is built for infrequent unmate – typical of an internal harness that mates once at assembly and stays. The phosphor bronze contact spring holds its normal force over that cycle count. The ZIF flip lock (actuator in white polyamide PA9T, halogen-free) clamps the FFC without insertion force – the contact beam wipes the pad on closure, not on insertion, which preserves the gold surface for the rated cycle life.
Position Count Contrast – 17 vs 20 vs 32 vs 36
The F300-1B7H1 base product number spans multiple position counts. If your BOM calls for more I/O, the 36-position sibling is the direct drop-in for the same connector family.
