Molex 0.5 mm Pitch 16 Way Right Angle Female FPC Connector, Solder 52746-1671

Molex 52746-1671 0.5 mm Pitch 16 Way Right Angle Female FPC Connector is a surface mount technology connector from the Molex 52746 series. It features gold over nickel plated phosphor bronze female contacts with a pitch of 0.5 mm. The bottom contact position and right angle orientation make it suitable for tight packaging applications.

This Easy On ZIF connector incorporates a slide-type actuator that provides secure and reliable connections while facilitating easy insertion of flexible printed circuits (FPCs). The hinging actuator mechanism helps maintain excellent electrical contact through secure retention even when the cable is moved.

Nylon housing material provides mechanical strength and the solder termination method ensures robust PCB mounting aided by solder tabs that add strain relief for solder tail joints. It supports currents up to 500mA and voltages up to 50V, operating reliably between -20°C and 85°C.

Typical applications include automotive navigation and audio systems, digital cameras, medical monitoring devices, and various consumer electronics where space saving and signal integrity are important.

The connector has a space-saving 0.5 mm pitch compatible with high-density PCB layouts. Gold plated phosphor bronze contacts enhance conductivity and corrosion resistance. ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) design reduces wear during cable insertion and removal cycles.

Right angle female orientation allows flexible routing of FPC cables in compact assemblies. Solder tabs provide additional mechanical stability and stress relief on solder joints. Nylon housing offers durability and consistent performance across temperature variations.

This Molex 52746 series product provides a reliable interconnection solution in industrial, automotive, medical, and consumer electronics applications. Browse more high-quality FPC Connectors in the EnvMart catalog for your electronic manufacturing needs.
