SLW16R-1C7

Flat Flexible Connectors (FFC/FPC) are a type of interconnection cable commonly used in the electronics industry. They are typically used to provide connections between different components or circuits. FFC cables provide a flexible connection between two surfaces and are ideal for boards with densely spaced components or components in tight spaces.

The SLW16R-1C7 FFC/FPC Connector is a perfect interconnect solution for applications requiring a high density contact arrangement in a small space. The connector comes in a 1.6mm pitch and is rated at 7A per contact. It is one of the most commonly used FFC/FPC connectors due to its size, reliability, and wide range of applications.

Design & Specifications
