This is a Flip Lock ZIF connector, which has extremely light weight, easy soldering on PCB, conductive traces on the PCB can run under the connector, easy FPC insertion and reliable electrical connection, accepts standard thickness FPC, allows board placement with automatic equipment.
The FH26 Series is an ultra‑low profile ZIF connector designed for compact devices such as mobile phones, digital cameras, and LCD panels. It offers extremely light weight (typical version 0.1 g), 0.3 mm contact pitch, and the ability to accept standard 0.2 mm thick flexible printed circuits. The connector can be mounted over conductive traces and is supplied on tape‑and‑reel for automated placement.
The manual details the FPC insertion procedure, actuator operation, recommended soldering profiles, and a full set of precautions to ensure reliable electrical and mechanical connections. It also lists the electrical ratings, environmental limits, and packaging specifications for the FH26 family.
