In light of the ongoing trend toward miniaturization in consumer devices, TE Connectivity (TE), formerly Tyco Electronics, today announced its latest 0.25mm pitch flexible printed circuit (FPC) connector (FPC slant). All TE 0.25mm pitch FPC connectors are RoHS compliant (Hazardous Substance Content Restriction).
Micropitch FPC connectors can be used on smaller printed circuit boards (PCBS) with more complex circuit designs. The launch of the product will further promote the development of consumer electronics such as mobile phones and digital cameras to miniaturization. Eric Himelright, TE's director of product management, said, "Micropitch connectors allow the same number of lines to be placed on a smaller board, saving valuable board space."
In addition to being smaller, TE's 0.25mm pitch FPC connectors feature a rotary rear lock box actuator (rear hatchback) design and lower contacts. The rotary rear lock (rear cover) connector can accommodate the take-and-place nozzle, is very easy to operate, and enables better printed circuit attachment. The solid box actuator protects the connector better, making it easy to operate.
The most important design feature of TE's 0.25mm pitch FPC connector is that it can accept the printed circuit to be inserted at an Angle, rather than the traditional horizontal orientation, which makes PCB board design more flexible. Traditional FPC connectors can only accept the circuit inserted from the horizontal direction, so it is impossible to install other components in the front of the FPC connector, so the FPC connector is usually installed on the edge of the PCB, and in fact, this is not always the most convenient location.
"The 0.25 mm pitch FPC connector with TE is a different story." TE Product Manager Masaki Mukasa stressed. "Since the printed circuit can be inserted at an Angle, the connector can be installed anywhere on the board, while additional components can also be installed on the front end of the FPC connector."
