0.50 mm Pitch, 20 Positions, Right-Angle SMT — BOM Fit First
This F31E-1A7H1-21020 is a 20-position FFC/FPC connector on 0.50 mm pitch, surface-mounted at a right angle. The 1.25 mm height above board keeps the assembly low-profile for tight enclosures. The ZIF slide lock accepts a 0.33 mm thick notched FPC — no insertion force on the contacts, which avoids pad damage during assembly.
Gold-Plated Bottom Contacts — 30 Mating Cycles, 0.5 A per Circuit
The phosphor bronze contacts carry a 1.97 µinch gold finish on the mating face — enough for 30 mating cycles minimum, which suits a field-service connector that isn't cycled daily.
Amphenol ICC lists this part as Active with RoHS compliance.
Aorora F31E vs F31L and F31W Siblings — Position Count and Height
The F31W-1A7H1-11020 is a vertical-mount 20-position variant at 4.25 mm height, useful when the cable enters perpendicular to the PCB. All three are Active and RoHS compliant.
