Features
1. Low profile on the PCB
When mounted on the PCB surface the
receptacle height is 2.0 mm.(Fig.1)
2. Strong Construction
Use of metal shell guarantees that fully mated
connectors will withstand 30 N max. force
applied on the plug in any direction.(Fig.2)
3. High contact reliability
Bellows contact with long mating stroke provides
highly reliable mating as well as soft insertion
feeling.
Mating durability is up to 5,000 times long.
4. Sequenced contact mating
The protection of the circuit is assured by having
the 2 contact at each end of the receptacle are
longer by 0.5 mm, with electrical wipe of 1.45
mm. Location of the circuit protection contacts
can be changed as required.
Remaining contacts electrical wipe is 0.95 mm.
5. Incorrect Insertion Prevention
Connectors will not be damaged when angled or
reverse plug insertion is attempted.(Fig.3)
6. Safety plug release
Plug will release when an excessive pull force is
applied to the cable.
7. RoHS Compliant
All materials and substances used to produce
this product comply with RoHS standards.
Applications
DSC, PDA, thin electronic equipment, mobile
phones and other portable devices requiring high
durability interface connectors.

Overview
LX Series is a super low profile interface
connector with sequential mating design and
friction lock, which has been developed for low
profile mobile terminals.
This connenctor features ESD problem
prevention in 0.5 mm terminal pitch and 2.0 mm
small and low profile design, which makes it
suitable to small mobile devices.
