The TF42 series of flip-back flexible printed circuit (FPC) connectors are designed for portable electronics. The TF42 series flip-back FPC connectors combine a compact, space-saving design with excellent retention. The FPC retention of these connectors is three times that of flip-forward connectors.

characteristic

Space-saving design with a depth of 3.0 mm

Single row contact structure provides excellent power (0.4 A/pin)

Superior FPC retention of up to 11 N, 3 times higher than typical flip-forward connectors

Before FPC insertion, the actuator is in a safety closed position for transport, storage and mounting to the PCB

Guaranteed contact clearance for FPC inserts regardless of actuator operation

Side catchers simplify installation by temporarily providing stable FPC retention for easy and accurate FPC positioning

Overmolded design ensures no exposed contacts on the bottom of the connector when installed

Provides PCB design flexibility, the board area under the connector can be used for PCB traces

Designed for volume manufacturing and compatible with vacuum pick-up

Prevent creeping tin by nickel barrier

Long actuators with a rotation angle of > 90° ensure easy operation
