■Features
1. Low-profile
With the 1.0 mm above the board and width of 3.8 mm the
connectors are used in space saving applications.
2. Increased FPC/FFC retention
As compared with existing similar construction connectors:
* In horizontal direction: Approximately 2.6 times
* In vertical direction: Approximately 2 times
3. Unique Back-Flip rotating actuator
The rotating actuator opens from the back of the connector,
assuring reliable electrical and mechanical connection.
4. Easy FPC/ FFC insertion
Entry chamfers at all sides of the FPC/FFC insertion slot assure
correct insertion and positioning of the FPC/FFC.
5. Delivered with the actuator open
FPC/FPC can be immediately inserted without the need for the
opening of the actuator.
6. Standard FPC/FFC thickness
Reliable connection with the use of ready available 0.3 mm thick
FFC/FPC.
7. Compatible with existing connectors.
FPC/FFC and PCB mounting patterns are the same as for the
FH19SC Series (bottom contact), allowing the use of both
connectors for interconnections between two boards or replacement
of the connectors.
8. Conductive traces on the PCB can run under
the connector
No exposed contacts on the bottom of the connector.
9. Board placement with automatic equipment
Flat top surface and packaging on the tape-and-reel allows use of
vacuum nozzles.
Standard reel contains 5,000 pieces.
■Applications
Mobile phones, PDA’s, digital cameras, digital camcorders, camera
modules and other compact devices requiring Flexible Printed Circuit
connections using high reliability extremely small profile connectors.

BOperation and Precautions
Exercise care when handling connectors. Follow recommendations given below.
1. As delivered
Delivered with the actuator
open. There is no need to
operate the actuator prior to
inserting the FPC/FFC.
Operation
2. FPC/FFC insertion
Insert the FPC/FFC with the
conductive surfaces facing
up.
Align the FPC/FFC straight
with the connector and insert
it firmly all the way.
• Do not close the actuator without the FPC/FPC inserted.
Precautions
• This connector is of the top contact specification.
The contacts are making connection with the FPC/FFC
pads from the top.
Do not insert the FPC/FFC with the pads facing down.
When inserting the FPC/FFC do not twist it. Insert
straight. Improper insertion may cause deformation of the
contacts and connection failures.
• Be sure to insert the FPC/FFC when the actuator is fully
open.
FPC/FFC contact
surfaces face up.
3. Locking
After FPC/FFC insertion, rotate the actuator down to a
full stop, pushing it at the center.
• Do not operate the actuator by only one end. Open or
close by pushing at the center.
• Do not try to rotate the actuator past the fully open 90°
position. This will damage the connector, preventing it
from use.
• Do not apply excessive force to the connector when the
actuator is closed.
Rotate
Push at the center of the actuator.
4. FPC/FFC removal (Lock release)
Carefully rotate the actuator up to 90°, lifting it at the
center.
• Do not operate the actuator from one end only.
• The actuator opens only 90°. Do not attempt to open it
past this angle or grasp it.
• During the opening of the actuator do not press it toward
the connector body. Rotate up at the center.

BPrecautions at the Design Stage
(1) Route the FPC/FFC so that a direct pull force
(2) Make sure that there is enough space to insert/remove the FPC/FFC straight.
(3) Follow the recommendations given in this catalog in regard to mounting pattern, metal mask dimensions and FPC/FFC mating
dimensions.
(4) Consult the manufacturer of the FPC/FFC for the details on the flexibility of the specific FPC/FFC.
(5) When designing the board lay-out and spaces in the device assure that there is enough clearances for the actuator to fully
open/close.
◆When hand soldering:
· Do not perform hand soldering with the FPC inserted in the connector.
* Do not apply excessive heat or touch the soldering iron anywhere other than the connector leads.
* Do not use excessive amount of solder or flux compounds.
Operation of the actuator or contacts may be affected by excessive amounts of solder or flux compounds.
◆Handling before mounting on PCB
Insertion of the FPC/FFC or operation of the actuator prior to mounting on the PCB is NOT RECOMMENDED.
◆PC board warpage
Minimize the warpage as much as possible. The connector are straight within 0.1 mm max. Make sure that the mounting area
flatness can accept the connector terminals without causing any failure of the solder joints.
◆Forces on the board
◆When braking the large PC board into individual boards exercise care NOT to damage the installed connectors.
◆When attaching the boards or other components with the screws make sure that any stresses will NOT cause board deflections
affecting the mounting areas of the connector.
