30-Position Vertical FFC/FPC Connector for Single-Sided Cable
The HLW30S-2C7LF is a 30-position FFC/FPC connector from Amphenol ICC's HLW-S series, with a 0.039" (1.00mm) pitch and vertical through-hole mounting. It accepts 0.33mm-thick flat flex cable with contacts on one side only — the one-sided contact design means the FPC's pads must face the connector's contact beam, so a single-sided cable mates correctly while a double-sided cable would need a different part. The kinked pin termination provides a stronger mechanical anchor than a straight solder tail, helping the connector resist pull forces from the cable during assembly or service.
The 1.00mm pitch sets the board landing pattern — each contact centre-to-centre spacing is 0.039", so the overall connector width across 30 positions is roughly 29 mm. This z-height matters when routing the FFC near other components or into a tight enclosure.
Active Lifecycle and Sourcing
The part ships in tray packaging, which is standard for through-hole connectors of this size.
Comparing the 30-Position Variant with Siblings
The HLW30S-2C7LF is the 30-position member of the HLW-S series. The kinked pin offers better retention against cable pull in high-vibration environments. For a different circuit count, the HLW31S-2C7LF (31 positions) and HLW32S-2C7LF (32 positions) are identical in every other spec — same pitch, height, current, voltage, and kinked pin termination. The 30-position variant is the most common for 30-conductor FFC assemblies used in parallel data interfaces.
