66987-017LF Connectors, Interconnects

FFC and FPC connectors are multipurpose electrical connectors which can be employed to image signals, digital signals, power wiring, and also to control the speed, acceleration and braking. The most commonly used FFC/FPC connector in the market today is the 66987-017LF.

The 66987-017LF is a standard FFC/FPC socket connector that is compatible with most FFC/FPC headers. It features a housing size of 4.2 mm and a pitch of 0.5 mm. The connector is available with contacts in a variety of numbers and styles. The most common applications for this connector type include LCD displays, imaging systems, and other types of electronic components.

The 66987-017LF employs a "polarized mating interface" that allows users to easily fit and remove the connector. This interface prevents misalignment of the contacts during the insertion or removal process. In addition, the 66987-017LF also features a low contact resistance for reliable electrical connection and signal transmission.

The 66987-017LF is designed with a spring type contact design. This ensures that the contacts are always securely held in place and exhibit high durability. The contacts themselves are made from gold-plated aluminum alloy, which provides resistance to corrosion and oxidation. Additionally, the connector features a durable construction that is designed to last the test of time.

The 66987-017LF also utilizes a "middle housing" design. This design offers users the ability to separate the connector into two parts. This makes it easy for users to access the connector\'s contacts for maintenance or upgrade purposes. The middle housing design also allows users to easily power two different components with a single connector.

FFC/FPC connectors are an essential part of today\'s electronics industry. The 66987-017LF is no exception, as it is one of the most widely used FFC/FPC connectors. It offers a reliable connection, a durable construction, and high contact resistance to ensure that users receive the most out of their connector.
