The ZIF flip lock and backlock mechanism secures the 0.30 mm-thick FFC without a secondary latch; the actuator reduces insertion force and prevents contact damage during cable insertion. Free-hanging (in-line) mounting suits cable-to-board or cable-to-cable connections where the connector body is not panel-mounted. ## Peer Comparison — Position Count and Contact Finish Options For a BOM requiring 15 circuits, the 67516-015LF is a direct functional alternative. The 67516-215LF and 67516-208LF use gold or GXT™ plating (30.0 µin) and accept 0.20 mm FFC, not 0.30 mm. The gold finish supports higher mating cycle counts and better corrosion resistance, but the FFC thickness must match the connector spec — 0.20 mm FFC will not seat correctly in the 67516-012LF. ## Termination and Cable Fit — Solder, ZIF, 0.30 mm FFC The connector terminates via solder to the FFC pads — the ZIF actuator clamps the cable without requiring a separate crimp operation. The cable end type is tapered, which aids insertion into the flip-lock mechanism.","metaTitle":"67516-012LF Amphenol ICC (FCI) Clincher™ FFC Receptacle 12","metaDescription":"67516-012LF Amphenol ICC (FCI) Clincher™ FFC receptacle, 12 positions, 0.100\" (2.54mm) pitch, 2 A, tin plating, ZIF flip lock.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":"Clincher™","packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":"RoHS Compliant","productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["FFC / FPC & Ribbon Connectors","FFC / FPC Cable Assemblies"],"specifications":{"Mfr":"Amphenol ICC (FCI)","Pitch":"0.100\\\" (2.54mm)","Series":"Clincher™","Package":"Tray","Features":"Solder Retention, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)","Termination":"Solder","Housing Color":"Blue","Mating Cycles":"100","Mounting Type":"Free Hanging (In-Line)","Actuator Color":"Black","Cable End Type":"Tapered","Contact Finish":"Tin","Flat Flex Type":"FFC","Product Status":"Active","Voltage Rating":"500V","Locking Feature":"Flip Lock, Backlock","lifecycle_stage":"unknown","Contact Material":"Copper Nickel Alloy","Housing Material":"Thermoplastic","Actuator Material":"-","FFC, FCB Thickness":"0.30mm","Height Above Board":"-","Base Product Number":"67516","Number of Positions":"12","Current Rating (Amps)":"2A","Operating Temperature":"-65°C~105°C","Connector/Contact Type":"Receptacle","Contact Finish Thickness":"100.0µin (2.54µm)","Material Flammability Rating":"UL94 V-0"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$3.9000","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":[{"qty":1,"price":"$3.90000","currency":"USD"},{"qty":10,"price":"$3.53900","currency":"USD"},{"qty":36,"price":"$3.35194","currency":"USD"},{"qty":72,"price":"$3.27403","currency":"USD"},{"qty":108,"price":"$3.11806","currency":"USD"},{"qty":252,"price":"$2.72829","currency":"USD"},{"qty":468,"price":"$2.65036","currency":"USD"},{"qty":972,"price":"$2.26061","currency":"USD"},{"qty":2412,"price":"$2.10470","currency":"USD"}]},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.icsourcedirect.com/8e29137733cc0f34a3a64f2d53b01de8.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What FFC thickness does 67516-012LF accept?","answer":"It accepts FFC with a thickness of 0.30 mm.
