66226-040LF

FFC, FPC (Flat Flexible) Connectors are increasingly gaining in popularity in applications where size and weight must be kept to a minimum. 66226-040LF is one such product used for fields like consumer electronics, automotive, communications, medical, and industrial automation. The connector has an ultra-slim and lightweight package, which makes it perfect for many applications.

It consists of two rows of contacts and a series of guides for the contacts that fit into the connecting components. The contacts can be either soldered or crimped onto the board, and the contact points are structurally set to keep the contacts in the appropriate place on the board. The width of the Connector is only 0.4mm, and the pitch is 0.05mm.

The contacts are made of a durable metal, typically stainless steel. The stainless steel contact points are designed to be corrosion-resistant and provide a secure connection. The contact layout is arranged to reduce signal loss by having the contact points evenly distributed across the contact area. The contact points are designed to prevent ingress of dust, dirt, and water.

The contact points are also designed to provide a mechanical locking mechanism that prevents accidental disconnection. The locking mechanism is achieved through the use of a self-clinching snap that fits over the connectors, providing a secure connection. This locking mechanism also prevents vibration from causing the contacts to become loose.

The connector uses a frictionless push-pull engagement and disengagement process that is easy to use. This connection method also minimizes downtime due to accidental disconnection. When mated, the contacts will provide a low-resistance connection that limits signal loss.

The housing is made of a durable plastic and metal enclosure that can withstand temperatures up to 80 degrees Celsius. The housing is highly resistant to corrosion and abrasion, and is designed to provide protection against dust and vibration. The connector can also be operated in an extended temperature range of -40 to +85 degrees Celsius.

The 66226-040LF connector is compatible with many different cable types and sizes. This allows it to be used with a variety of wires and cables, thus making it a versatile option for applications where space is limited and flexibility is needed. The connector is also compatible with a variety of mating connectors, allowing it to interface with a wide selection of components.

The 66226-040LF connector is designed for a variety of electronic applications, and it provides a reliable connection, low signal loss, and quick assembly. Its compact size, light weight, and versatile cable compatibility make it an ideal choice for applications where space is limited and where a reliable connection is necessary.
