0.30 mm Pitch, 41-Position FPC Connector with ZIF Actuation
The 1-2013928-6: This TE Connectivity FPC connector (base number 2013928) is a 41-position, 0.30 mm pitch right-angle surface-mount part with zero insertion force (ZIF) actuation. The 41 positions are a specific count; confirm your FPC conductor count matches before committing the BOM line. The ZIF mechanism uses a flip-lock, backlock actuator — the actuator flips open to accept the FPC, then locks back down to clamp the contacts against the pads. This avoids the insertion force that can tear fine-pitch traces, and the backlock design keeps the actuator flush in the locked position. Gold-plated contacts (copper alloy base) mate with the FPC pads. The 0.88 mm height above board keeps it low-profile for tight z-axis budgets.
Termination and Mounting Fit
The 0.30 mm pitch demands precise solder paste stencil alignment; the 0.20 mm FPC thickness is the specified cable end thickness for proper contact wipe. The tapered cable end type helps guide the FPC into the ZIF slot during assembly. The housing material carries no specific UL flame rating in the record, but the part is intended for use inside an enclosure where the connector is not the primary flame barrier.
