What this 2-position FFC/FPC connector is
The 5-520314-2: It uses a top-contact design, meaning the FFC or FPC cable sits above the contact beam, and terminates with kinked pins for through-hole soldering. The tin plating on the contacts is fine for low-cycle applications: the datasheet lists 25 mating cycles, so this is a one-time-assembly or occasional-service part, not a daily-disconnect port.
Mounting and board-fit details
Through-hole, right-angle mounting — the kinked pins lock into the PCB and provide strain relief during soldering. Accepts FFC or FPC thickness from 0.13 mm to 0.38 mm, which covers most common ribbon cables used in low-voltage signal paths. The straight cable end type means the cable exits without a bend — useful for routing directly to a panel or another board edge.
