Overview
The FH12-8S-1SH(55) is an 8-position, bottom-contact FPC/FFC connector featuring a 1.00mm pitch and a right-angle surface mount orientation. Part of Hirose's established FH12 series, it utilizes a flip-lock ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) mechanism to provide secure cable retention with a low 2.00mm profile above the PCB.
Why Choose This Part
The flip-lock actuator ensures a positive tactile click when engaged, preventing accidental cable extraction and simplifying assembly. Its gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts provide a reliable electrical connection with a 50mOhm maximum resistance and a 0.5A current rating per position.
Applications
LCD Module Interconnects
Connecting small-form-factor liquid crystal displays to main control boards in handheld devices.
Internal Peripheral Wiring
Bridging signals between secondary PCBs, such as button arrays or sensor boards, and the primary logic board.
Compact Consumer Electronics
Providing space-efficient connectivity in tablets, digital cameras, and portable instrumentation where vertical clearance is limited to 2.00mm.
