Product details

20-Position 1.00 mm Pitch ZIF FPC Connector

The housing is brown UL94 V-0 thermoplastic, and the contacts are tin-plated phosphor bronze. The 5.30 mm height above board (0.209") gives clearance for the actuator and the FPC bend radius.

ZIF Actuator and Mating Cycle Life

The ZIF mechanism means the FPC is inserted with zero force on the contacts — the actuator clamps down after insertion. Mating cycles are rated at 20, which is low. For a one-time assembly in a consumer or fixed-install product, that's fine. For a field-service connector that gets disconnected and reconnected repeatedly, the 20-cycle limit means the contact finish will wear through and resistance will rise. Tin plating on the contacts also limits cycle life compared to gold.

It is RoHS compliant.

Frequently asked questions

What is the pitch of the SFW20S-2STE1LF?

The pitch is 0.039" (1.00 mm). This sets the PCB footprint spacing and the FPC conductor pitch you need to match.

Is the SFW20S-2STE1LF a ZIF connector?

Yes, it uses a zero insertion force (ZIF) actuator. The FPC slides in without force, then the actuator locks it in place.

What is the closest equivalent to the SFW20S-2STE1LF?

The SFW20S-2STME1LF is the closest functional equivalent — same pitch, positions, height, and tin contacts. The only difference is packaging: the -2STME1LF adds Digi-Reel availability.
