0.50 mm Pitch, 10-Position FFC/FPC ZIF Connector
RoHS compliant and halogen-free. The housing and actuator materials are glass-filled nylon and PPS respectively, both rated UL94 V-0 for flammability.
Slide Lock vs Flip Lock — Peer Comparison
The closest functional peer is SFV10R-2STE1HLF — same pitch, position count, current rating, height, and tin-plated contacts. The difference is the locking mechanism: SFV10R-2STE9HLF uses a slide lock; SFV10R-2STE1HLF uses a flip lock. Both are ZIF, but the slide lock requires a linear push to close, while the flip lock rotates down. The cable end type also differs — SFV10R-2STE9HLF accepts straight or tapered FPC ends; SFV10R-2STE1HLF accepts notched or tabbed cables. For a gold-plated option, SFV10R-2STBE1HLF carries gold contacts (higher mating cycle life) but uses the same slide lock and accepts only tapered cable ends. If your application demands more than 20 mating cycles, the gold variant is the better fit.
The top-contact configuration means the cable's conductive pads face upward when inserted into the connector. Termination is solder — the connector is surface-mounted to the PCB. The slide lock actuator is black, matching the housing, and requires no tool to close.
