FH12-13S-0.5SH(55)

Introduction

FFC, FPC (flat flexible) connectors are used to connect electronic components together or to connect a component to a circuit board. They have a wide range of applications, from space and military to consumer electronics. The FH12-13S-0.5SH(55) is a standard FFC/FPC type connector with a 0.5mm pitch and a 55mm total length.

Application Field

FH12-13S-0.5SH(55) connectors have a wide range of applications. For example, they are often used to connect two printed circuit boards in high-speed applications in telecom and server systems. They are also used to connect signal, power, control cables or signal sensitive sensors with microcontrollers. Furthermore, this connector can be used in electrical power applications, such as hearing aids, medical devices, consumer electronics, and automotive systems.

Working Principle

FH12-13S-0.5SH(55) connectors consist of two components: an FPC and a connector housing. The FPC contains metal contacted points that form a connection with the contacts in the connector housing. When the two components are mated, the terminals inside the connector housing make contact with the metal contacted points on the FPC, forming an electrical connection. The contact springs inside the connectors provide the required contact force to ensure reliable contact between the two components.

The FH12-13S-0.5SH(55) connector is designed to provide maximum durability and reliability in harsh environments. The connector’s durable design is achieved through various features, such as the strong contact force achieved through optimized contact springs, the wafer-based contact design which ensures reliable electrical contact, and the structure which is designed to prevent the FPC from slipping out when the two components are mated.
