■Features

1. Highly reliable connection and robust structure

With the need for higher contact counts and the need for

a connector body that delivers unquestionable strength

and a reliable connection in a FPC/FFC connector, the

FH52 series has made great strides to meet this need. It

meets this need with the following:

-An FPC positioning mechanism that delivers the high

reliability requested

-A reliable and secure connection that is packed into a

well-designed, durable structure.

2. Product variations capable of meeting a range of needs

･FH52E : Long metal fittings type

Easy visual inspection of solder posts after processing.

･FH52K : Long metal fittings type, 125℃ Heat Resistant Type

125

℃ heat resistant connector meets severe automotive requirements

･FH52T : Long metal fittings type, 2-Point Contact Type

Contact structure with independent springs connects with

FPC/FCC at 2 points reducing failure from dust intrusion.

3. Simplified operations

The flip lock structure makes it easier to engage/

disengage the actuator and reduces the required force

needed to operate. A clear tactile click is delivered upon

the successful completion of the mating process.

4. Increased retention force

The side catch technology combined with tabbed FPC/FFC

increase the horizontal retention force of the FPC/FFC.

5. Accepts standard 0.3mm thick FPC/FFC

It accepts 0.3mm thick products that are easy to

manufacture and have superb insertion performance.

6. Fully molded structure aids PCB layout

The bottom of this connector is enclosed by a fully

molded structure that protects the contacts and removes

any restrictions from PCB patterning and design.

7. Halogen-free

All materials and substances used to produce this

product comply with Halogen-free standards.* As

defined in IEC 61249-2-21. Br : 900 ppm or less, Cl : 900

ppm or less, Br+Cl : 1,500 ppm or less

8. Supports automatic pick-n-place mounting

Offered in tape and reel packaging that is compatible with

automatic machine mounting. (3,000pcs/reel)

9. Multiple packing options

The standard packaging is 3,000pcs/reel, but it is also

offered in a 500pcs/reel. (The outer diameter of the reel

will be Ø180mm in this case.)
