What this 0.25mm-pitch FPC connector does
The 1-2040832-6 is a 41-position FPC connector from TE Connectivity AMP, built for high-density signal routing on a 0.25mm pitch – one of the tightest pitches in the FPC connector class.
Signal-level current and voltage limits
Rated 0.2A per contact at 50V, this connector is strictly for signal-level interconnects – not for power delivery. The 0.2A limit is typical for ultra-fine-pitch FPC connectors where the contact beam cross-section and pitch restrict current.
Assembly and retention features
The housing is natural LCP glass-filled (UL94 V-0), and the actuator is black LCP glass-filled – the natural housing colour helps visual inspection of solder joints. Gold-plated copper alloy contacts ensure reliable signal transfer over repeated mating cycles, typical for field-serviceable or test-point connections.
