8-Position 0.50mm Pitch FPC Connector for Signal-Level Interconnects
The JST FLZ series 08FLZ-SM2-TB(LF)(SN) is an 8-position, 0.50mm pitch FPC connector with a top-contact ZIF design and slide lock.
Position Count and Pitch for BOM Fit
At 8 positions, this connector fits low-channel signal or power BOMs where a 9-position alternative (09FLZ-SM2-TB) would over-spec the board footprint. The 0.50mm pitch sets the trace fan-out density—tight enough for compact layouts but wide enough for standard PCB fab tolerances.
ZIF Actuation and Slide Lock for Reliable Mating
The zero insertion force mechanism eliminates FPC pad wear during insertion—the actuator opens the contact beams, the cable slides in, then the slide lock closes to clamp the contacts.
