The HFW18S-2STE1 is a FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector developed by Hirose Electric, specifically designed for application fields where the size, shape, weight and/or cost limits of conventional connectors are hindrance. The product is a shielded connector which ensures low-noise and higher degree of electrical and electromagnetic field compatibility.

The FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector portion of the HFW18S-2STE1 is designed with Hirose Electric’s patented LFW (Lateral & Flat Wire) Technology. This technology permits connection of FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) connector or FFC (Flat Flexible) connector to IC board or a mother board. By horizontal flat wire insertion technology, the connector enables connection within limited space.

The 2STE1 FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector portion of the HFW18S-2STE1 also has an enhanced design that helps eliminate problems such as signal crosstalk. The 2STER1 has a contact pitch of 0.5 mm and is rated at a current of 0.5 amps, allowing it to be used in a wide range of applications. For additional versatility, the connector is compatible with both surface-mount and through-hole technology.

The HFW18S-2STE1 FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector also features a working principle that utilizes a compact straight-type FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) connector with no slant angles or pinout restrictions. The connector is equipped with 12-pin header and is capable of operating at temperatures from -55to +105°C. In addition, the FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) portion of the connector also features a crimp type of contact.

However, the key feature of the HFW18S-2STE1 FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector is its superior flexibility when compared to conventional FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) or FFC (Flat Flexible) connectors. This is due to its small size and light weight, which makes it perfect for various thin, small, or lightweight applications such as medical and automotive electronics. Furthermore, because of its low profile design, users can easily add or remove the connector without affecting the rest of the arrangement.

The HFW18S-2STE1 FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector is mainly used in applications requiring lightweight and thin connectors. It is suitable for a range of applications such as medical, automotive, communications and industrial, and has been adopted as a common FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector in the Japanese and European markets. Due to its superior flexibility, the connector can be used in applications that require high-density connections.

In conclusion, the HFW18S-2STE1 FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector is a high-performance product designed by Hirose Electric for applications that cannot be addressed by conventional connectors. It features a small size, light weight, and low profile design, allowing users to easily add or remove the connector without compromising the rest of the arrangement. It is equipped with 12-pin header and is rated at a current of 0.5 amps, making it suitable for a range of applications such as medical, automotive, communications and industrial. Furthermore, the enhanced design of the 2STE1 FFC (Flat Flexible) Connector ensures low-noise and higher degree of electrical and electromagnetic field compatibility.
