Molex 0.5 mm Pitch 4 Way Right Angle Female FPC Connector, Solder 52746-0471

Molex 52746-0471 is a 0.5 mm pitch, 4 way right angle female FPC connector designed for surface mounting on PCBs with solder termination. It belongs to the 52746 series of Easy On ZIF FPC connectors, featuring a space-saving design ideal for use in compact electronic assemblies requiring secure and reliable flat flex cable connections.

This connector features a slide-type zero insertion force actuator that minimizes wear and allows repeated cycling. The hinged actuator design facilitates easier insertion of the FPC cable. The contacts are made of phosphor bronze, plated with gold over nickel for optimal electrical performance and corrosion resistance. Contacts are aligned at the top and can move with the cable to maintain consistent contact retention force, preventing signal loss.

The nylon housing offers excellent mechanical durability and insulation. Solder tabs or nails at the base enhance PCB retention and provide strain relief to solder tails, improving mechanical reliability in applications where cables or boards may experience movement or stress.

Operating temperature range for this connector spans from -20°C to 85°C with a voltage rating of 50V and a current carrying capacity of 500mA. The connector includes a secure locking mechanism to prevent accidental disconnection.

This FPC connector is extensively used in automotive navigation systems, digital cameras, home security devices, tablets, notebooks, medical equipment such as patient monitors, GPS units, smartphones, and other mobile devices. Its compact size and reliable electrical connection make it suitable for high-density electronics manufacturing.

Zero insertion force slide actuator reduces wear and enables easy FPC insertion. Phosphor bronze contacts with gold over nickel plating ensure durability and conductivity. Right angle orientation supports space-saving PCB layout.

Nylon housing provides insulation and mechanical strength. Solder tabs secure PCB retention and strain relief. Designed for various industrial, commercial, and consumer electronic applications. Operates reliably within -20°C to 85°C temperature range.
