Hirose FH28 0.5 mm Pitch 30 Way Right Angle Female FPC Connector, Solder

Hirose FH28E-30S-0.5SH(05) is part of the FH28 Series featuring a robust 0.5 mm pitch 30 way right angle female FPC connector with solder termination and surface mount design. The connector’s ZIF flip-lock actuator ensures easy insertion and secure retention of FPC/FFC cables, supported by reinforced metal fittings that firmly lock the actuator in place, accompanied by an audible tactile click on closure to confirm connection security.

The phosphor bronze contacts are gold plated and positioned at the bottom side, ensuring reliable electrical performance under industrial standard operating voltages up to 50V AC and currents up to 500mA. The connector supports a single row of contacts and includes side catches to accommodate tabbed FPC cables, enhancing retention force and providing strain relief and proper cable alignment. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 105°C.

The housing is molded from high-performance Liquid Crystal Polymer, offering durability and insulation suitable for diverse applications including industrial machinery, consumer electronics, GPS navigation devices, test and measurement equipment, barcode readers, and medical instruments. The enclosed bottom design allows mounting over conductive traces on the PCB without exposure of contacts, aiding design flexibility and board layout considerations.

Hirose FH28 connectors also provide options such as FH28E and FH28H variants, with metal fittings tailored for manual soldering and space-saving actuator designs respectively. This particular model, FH28E-30S-0.5SH(05), features a robust, reliable connector system optimized for secure, high-quality electronic interconnections.

The connector’s ZIF actuator facilitates zero insertion force FPC/FFC connections with secure locking. Gold plated phosphor bronze contacts ensure long-term conductivity and corrosion resistance. Robust housing material Liquid Crystal Polymer offers dimensional stability and electrical insulation.

Side catches enhance retention and strain relief support for tabbed flexible cables. Operating temperature range from -40°C to 105°C suitable for industrial environments. Rated for 50V AC voltage and 500mA current handling capacities.

Right angle orientation supports compact PCB layout design requirements.

This product is manufactured in Japan to Hirose’s stringent quality standards. The FH28 series addresses demands for durable, secure, and space-efficient FPC connectors in industrial and commercial electronic equipment.
