18-position 1.00 mm pitch vertical SMT FFC/FPC connector
The 1-84982-8 is an 18-position, 0.039" (1.00mm) pitch FFC/FPC connector from TE Connectivity AMP, terminated by solder to a surface-mount board. The vertical orientation and straight cable entry keep the flex cable perpendicular to the PCB — a common layout for tight z-height budgets where a right-angle exit would crowd adjacent components. The tin-plated phosphor bronze contacts suit moderate-cycle applications — expect fewer mating cycles than a gold-plated equivalent, but the cost per position is lower for high-volume builds where the connector mates once and stays.
ROHS3 compliant. Housing is glass-filled nylon (PA), beige. No second-source cross-reference is published by TE, but the 84982 base number shares the same pitch, height, and contact finish across position counts — a functional alternative at a different circuit count would require a board layout change.
