Hirose 15 Way Right Angle Female FPC Connector, 0.5 mm Pitch, Bottom Contact FH52-15S-0.5SH

Hirose FH52-15S-0.5SH 15 Way Right Angle Female FPC Connector with a 0.5 mm pitch is engineered for reliable bottom contact connections on PCBs. This surface mount FPC/FFC connector offers a low profile mated height of 2.00 mm, making it suitable for compact electronic devices requiring robust interconnections.

The connector’s key feature is its easy-to-use rotating flip lock actuator, which ensures secure insertion of FPC cables with a tactile click confirmation. Metal fittings inside the housing stabilize the actuator, increasing retention force and mechanical durability, ideal for applications prone to vibration or movement.

The dual-point contact design enhances electrical reliability, essential for precise signal transmission in audio, video, industrial control units, and portable medical devices. Side catches inside the housing guide and temporarily secure tabbed FPCs until the locking mechanism engages, ensuring consistent electrical contacts.

Constructed with phosphor bronze contacts and gold plating, this connector maintains excellent conductivity and resistance to corrosion. The liquid crystal polymer housing ensures durability and complies with halogen-free standards as per IEC 61249-2-21, supporting environmental safety requirements.

This connector is rated for operation from -40°C up to 105°C, with a voltage rating of 50V AC and a current rating of 500mA, making it suitable for a wide range of low-power electronic applications including audio/video equipment, notebooks, optical drives, and LCD displays.

Low profile mated height of 2 mm for space-saving PCB layouts. Rotating flip lock actuator facilitates easy and secure FPC insertion. Metal fittings provide enhanced actuator retention and durability. Dual contact points ensure high electrical reliability.

Side catches for precise FPC guidance and retention during assembly. Surface mount style compatible with automatic pick-and-place processes. Phosphor bronze contacts with gold plating for reliable conductivity. Liquid crystal polymer housing ensures robust mechanical strength and halogen-free compliance.

Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to 105°C. Rated voltage 50V AC and current 500mA appropriate for low power electronic devices.

This Hirose FH52 series connector is widely used across industrial, medical, audio/video, and consumer electronics sectors where durable, compact, and reliable FPC connections are critical. Explore more Hirose FPC Connectors for high-quality PCB interconnect solutions at EnvMart.
