Overview

The 0522712079 is a 20-position Right Angle FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) connector with a 1.00mm pitch. This ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) connector features a slide lock mechanism and bottom contact orientation, designed for secure and reliable surface mount termination in low-profile electronic assemblies.

Why Choose This Part

The ZIF design and slide lock mechanism ensure low-wear insertion and high retention force for tapered cables. Its phosphor bronze contacts with tin-bismuth plating provide reliable electrical performance up to 0.5A per circuit while maintaining a compact 3mm mating height.

Applications

Small Display Interconnects
Connecting LCD or OLED modules to a main PCB in handheld devices where space is limited.
User Interface Panels
Linking membrane switches or capacitive touch foils to the system controller.
Internal Peripheral Routing
Connecting optical drives, sensors, or secondary daughterboards in compact consumer electronics.
