HFW30R-1STE1

FFC, FPC Connectors

FFC (Flat Flexible) and FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) Connectors are increasingly becoming popular due to their compact size and easy assembly. These connectors provide a reliable connection between boards in a variety of applications, ranging from small hand-held devices to larger industrial machines. The HFW30R-1STE1 connector is a specialized type of FFC and FPC connector that is designed for wiring applications which require a reliable and secure connection in tight spaces.

HFW30R-1STE1 Application Field

The HFW30R-1STE1 connector is a double-row, low-profile, board-to-board flat flex connector. It is ideal for space-restricted applications, such as data/communication cables, PCBs, and other electronics circuits. Its low-profile design allows for a high packing density, making it ideal for applications where there is limited board space, such as notebook computers and other hand-held devices. Additionally, the HFW30R-1STE1 connector is RoHS compliant, although not UL approved, making it an excellent solution for many applications.

Working Principle

The HFW30R-1STE1 connector is made up of two parts: a flat flex (FFC) cable and an FPC (flexible printed circuit) connector. The FFC cable is inserted into the connector, with the contacts on the FFC cable pushing against the contacts on the FPC connector. This provides a secure and reliable connection between the two components. Additionally, the FPC connector is designed with an integral latch, which securely locks the FFC cable in place.

The HFW30R-1STE1 connector also has an integral contact design, which creates a stronger connection between the two components and reduces contact failure. This contact design is also optimized to reduce the risk of electrical shorts and crosstalk. Additionally, the HFW30R-1STE1 connector has a shrouded design that prevents damage to the contacts, further ensuring a reliable connection.

Conclusion

The HFW30R-1STE1 is a specialized type of FFC and FPC connector that is designed for wiring applications which require a reliable and secure connection in tight spaces. It is ideal for data/communication cables, PCBs, and other electronics circuits due to its low-profile design, integral contact design, and secure latching mechanism. Additionally, the HFW30R-1STE1 connector is RoHS compliant and is an excellent solution for many applications.
