FPC connectors ideal for use in miniaturised high-density applications

RS Components are offering the Wurth WR-FPC series 1mm ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) vertical SMT mounting FPC connectors with contacts on both sides. These connectors feature a slide lock or stuffer type actuator that allows easy insertion of the FPC. The actuator is pulled open, the FPC inserted into the connector, and the actuator pressed down again to form a secure mating connection. This slide lock actuator provides added retention to the FPC resulting in a reliable electrical and mechanical connection. These FPC connectors are perfect for use in miniaturised high-density applications including touch panels, displays and screens. Other industries include consumer electronics (personal computers, tablets, mobile phones and cameras) and in business, industrial and medical equipment.
