Yamaichi Electronics - Zero insertion force FFC connector with a 0.5mm pitch

The ZIF connector is characterized by a cover which can be widely opened and in which a standard FFC can be smoothly inserted. The cover is closed and locks with a distinctly audible click. Another feature of HF601 is its ability to contact FFC with or without a positionig part due to the special design. The positioning part ensures an increase in safety against extraction of the FFC.

For more flexibility the connector is available with pin counts 10, 20, 26, 30, 40, 45, 50 and 60. It is delivered on tape reels.

Apart from the HF601 ZIF connector Yamaichi Electronics offers also other zero insertion force connectors equipped with tray type mechanism. An alternative to ZIF board-to-cable connections is the Y-Lock® Pullforce connector which can be locked without opening or closing of a cover thanks to its one-push-lock system.
