30-Position ZIF FPC Connector for Tight Board Layouts
The SFV30R-2STBE1HLF is a 30-position, 0.50mm pitch FPC connector from Amphenol ICC's SFV-R series, designed for top-contact termination with a zero-insertion-force slide lock actuator. The right-angle SMT package sits 1.80 mm above the board, keeping the z-height low for compact enclosures. Gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts handle 0.5 A per circuit at 50 V, typical for signal-level FPC interconnects in displays, touch panels, and sensor modules. The 20-cycle mating rating suits a set-and-forget assembly where the FPC is inserted once during manufacturing.
ZIF Slide Lock and FPC Thickness Compatibility
The slide lock actuator applies even clamping force across the 30 contacts without requiring insertion force on the FPC — the ZIF mechanism protects the thin flex circuit from damage during assembly. The connector accepts FPC thicknesses of 0.30 mm and 0.33 mm, with a straight or tapered cable end. The black housing and black actuator provide visual contrast for automated optical inspection.
