0.50 mm pitch, 30-position vertical FFC — BOM-fit anchor
The 5017863091 is a 30-position, 0.50 mm pitch vertical FFC connector from the Molex Easy-On 501786 series. It terminates a 0.30 mm thick notched FFC with a slide lock for positive retention — no secondary latch needed. Rated 0.5 A per contact at 50 V, with gold-over-phosphor bronze contacts (39.4 µin gold) that handle 20 mating cycles — enough for a semi-permanent board-to-flex link in a low-service assembly. The vertical orientation and 5.95 mm height above board suit tight z-height budgets where a right-angle connector would crowd adjacent components.
Slide lock and 0.30 mm FFC compatibility
The slide lock engages over the FFC stiffener, holding the cable in place without a separate clamp. This matters when the cable runs to a moving panel or sees occasional tugging during service.
