Product details

The 20FLZ-RSM2-TB is a 20-position, 0.50mm pitch FFC/FPC connector from JST's FLZ series. It terminates flat flex cable with a bottom-contact, ZIF (zero insertion force) slide-lock mechanism. The right-angle SMT package sits 2.00mm above the board, making it a fit for tight board-edge layouts in consumer electronics, display interfaces, and low-power signal routing.

At 0.50mm pitch, this connector matches the common FFC ribbon spacing for high-density signal runs. The 20 circuits cover typical parallel data or control lines in LCD panels, camera modules, and sensor arrays. The bottom-contact arrangement means the FFC's conductive pads face downward when inserted, which is the standard orientation for most board-side FFC layouts. The slide lock secures the cable without requiring a secondary latch or adhesive.

Current, voltage, and temperature — the operating envelope

The -25°C to 85°C range covers indoor commercial equipment and most consumer electronics. It does not extend to automotive underhood or industrial oven environments.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between 20FLZ-RSM2-TB and 20FLZ-SM2-TB?

The key difference is contact orientation: 20FLZ-RSM2-TB uses bottom contacts, while 20FLZ-SM2-TB uses top contacts. Both have 20 positions, 0.50mm pitch, and the same slide-lock ZIF mechanism. The housing color also differs — natural for the RSM2, gray for the SM2.

Does 20FLZ-RSM2-TB mate with standard 0.50mm pitch FFC?

Yes, it accepts 0.30mm-thick FFC or FPC with a tapered cable end. The ZIF slide lock secures the cable without requiring a separate latch. Confirm the cable's conductor pitch and thickness match before committing.
