6-Position FPC Connector for Signal-Level Board Interconnects
The ZIF mechanism means the FPC slides into the open contacts without force, then the actuator clamps down — this avoids stubbing the delicate traces and extends the usable life of the cable. The 0.33 mm specified FPC thickness is a common standard; a 0.3 mm FPC is within tolerance, but a 1 mm cable will not fit the contact gap.
Vertical orientation means the FPC exits perpendicular to the PCB, which saves board-edge space compared to a right-angle connector. The height above board is 5.30 mm — check your enclosure z-height budget, especially if stacking boards or placing components under the cable exit. Surface-mount termination with a tape-and-reel package suits automated pick-and-place assembly. The actuator is also glass-filled thermoplastic, which holds up to repeated actuation without cracking.
