Wurth Elektronik WR-FPC 1 mm Pitch 18 Way Horizontal Female FPC Connector ZIF Bottom Contact 686118148922

Wurth Elektronik 686118148922 is a high-quality 1 mm pitch 18 way horizontal female FPC connector featuring a ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) bottom contact termination. This connector is engineered to meet the demands of modern miniaturized electronics by offering a secure, low-profile solution with a hinged flip-lock actuator that firmly holds the flexible printed circuit (FPC) cable in place.

Constructed with phosphor bronze contacts plated with tin over nickel, it guarantees excellent electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion, ensuring stable performance in demanding environments. The surface mount design and solder retention features facilitate efficient assembly on printed circuit boards (PCBs), while the integrated locking mechanism prevents accidental disconnections.

This connector supports a voltage of 100 V AC and a current of 1A, making it suitable for a range of low power applications. It withstands operating temperatures from -40°C to 105°C, providing reliable function in varied industrial, commercial, and consumer electronics environments.

Typical use cases include connections to small displays, keyboards, and other compact electronic devices where space-saving and high-density connector solutions are essential. The single row of 18 female contacts with 1 mm pitch optimizes the interface for precise and compact assemblies.

This FPC connector features 18 contacts with a 1 mm pitch for precise connectivity. Phosphor bronze contact material ensures durability and excellent conductivity. ZIF bottom contact with a hinged flip-lock actuator secures the flexible cable reliably.

Surface mount design enables easy PCB integration. Horizontal orientation with locking mechanism for stable positioning. Rated for 100 V AC voltage and 1A current capacity. Operating temperature from -40°C to 105°C for versatile use.

Tin over nickel plating enhances corrosion resistance. Compact, low profile design suitable for miniaturized electronic assemblies. Manufactured in China to meet quality standards.
