Overview

The FH34SRJ-12S-0.5SH(50) is a 12-position, 0.5mm pitch FPC/FFC connector featuring a low-profile design and a rotary backlock mechanism. This ZIF connector supports both top and bottom contact layouts, providing layout flexibility for high-density PCB designs. It is rated for a 105 degree Celsius operating temperature, making it suitable for demanding thermal environments.

Why Choose This Part

The rotary backlock mechanism ensures a secure connection with high retention force while remaining easy to operate during assembly. Its dual-contact design (top and bottom) eliminates the need for separate connector variants for different FPC cable orientations, simplifying the bill of materials.

Applications

Handheld Devices
Connecting small LCD modules or capacitive touch panels to the main logic board in space-constrained enclosures.
Industrial Sensors
Interfacing flexible circuitry from internal sensor probes to the primary processing electronics.
Wearable Technology
Routing signals across hinges or curved surfaces where traditional rigid-to-rigid connections are impractical.
