Overview

The 68711814022 is an 18-position, 0.5mm pitch FPC connector designed for high-density horizontal surface mount applications. This ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) connector utilizes a slide-lock mechanism and top-contact orientation to provide secure, low-wear electrical connections to tapered flat flex cables.

Why Choose This Part

The ZIF slide-lock mechanism prevents contact wear during assembly and provides a high retention force once engaged. Its LCP housing is rated UL94 V-0 for flammability and supports reflow soldering with an 85 degree C peak operating temperature capability.

Applications

LCD and OLED Displays
Connecting small graphical display modules to main system PCBs in handheld devices.
Optical Pickup Units
Providing a reliable signal path for mobile sensor modules where space is constrained.
User Interface Panels
Linking membrane switches or capacitive touch panels to the primary controller.
Compact Wearables
Interconnecting multi-PCB assemblies within small form-factor consumer electronics.
