For a connector that might see a dozen or two insertions over its life, that's less risk of a lifted pad on the flex. If your application calls for frequent reconnection or a corrosive environment, the gold-plated variants in the FMN family are worth a look. This is the top-contact version — the FFC's exposed pads face upward when the cable is inserted. It accepts 0.30 mm thick FFC, which covers most standard flex circuits and pre-terminated cables. The straight cable end type means no fold or bend at the connector entry. The phosphor bronze contacts are tin-plated, giving a reliable connection for signal-level currents. The base part number is 16FMN-SM, so any future revisions or packaging variants will track under that root.","metaTitle":"16FMN-SMT-A-TF(LF)(SN) JST FMN FFC Connector – 1.00mm Pitch","metaDescription":"JST FMN series 16-position FFC connector, 1.00mm pitch, 0.5A, 50V, tin-plated contacts, right-angle SMT, LIF.
