14-position ZIF for tight board-edge routing
The SFV14R-1STE1HLF is a 14-position, 0.50mm pitch FFC/FPC connector from Amphenol ICC's SFV-R series. Rated 0.5A per contact at 50V, with tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts good for 20 mating cycles. Housing is black LCP, glass-filled and halogen-free, rated UL94 V-0. Accepts FPC thickness of 0.30mm or 0.33mm with a notched cable end.
In a production harness, the FFC is inserted once and the slide lock closed; subsequent disconnects are for repair only. Tin contacts at 0.5A keep the temperature rise low, but the cycle limit is set by the contact finish, not the current. For applications needing frequent cable swaps, look at the gold-plated variants in the SFV-R series.
