Quick Reference Guide
Standard Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) Connectors
- 0.5mm, 1.0mm & 1.25mm Pitch
As the demands for higher-density packaging of electronic equipment increase, the use of flexible printed circuits (FPC) to
reduce size, weight and assembly costs has expanded.
As with our fine pitch FPC product, our larger pitch FPC connectors are also an ideal solution for routing signal through your
device when standard wire-to-board products are too large or impractical. Set on larger centerline pitch, these FPC products
are generally found in larger mobile devices such as hand-held scanners, cameras and GPS units; as well as in larger applications
such as set-top boxes, business equipment and industrial controls.
FPC interconnects of this size are also commonly found on devices that have low-definition displays, touch panels or screens.
This makes it very easy to identify potential FPC interconnect opportunities.
TE Connectivity's FPC solutions are available in 0.25mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 1.0mm and 1.25mm centerline spacing.
In this quick reference guide we introduce items with 0.5mm, 1.0mm and 1.25mm centerline spacing.

Standard FPC Connectors - 0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.25mm Pitch
Basic Information
Multiple Centerlines
Measuring Centerline –
Connector Side
Measuring Centerline –
Cable Side
Centerline can be measured many different ways; however, in general, it is simply the spacing between the center of
one contact and the center of its neighboring contact.
Here you can see an example of the centerline spacing on an FPC connector and the centerline spacing on a flexible
printed circuit cable.
ZIF and non-ZIF
ZIF Connectors
・
Use an actuator to secure the flex cable
・
Less wear on contacts
・
Increase mating cycle count
・
Provide added retention
・
Better for high vibration environments
Non-ZIF Connectors
・
Use friction to secure the flex cable
・
Lower mating cycle count
・
Better for static applications
・
Smaller and lighter weight than equivalent ZIF counterpart
・
Take up less board real-estate
・
Typically less expensive than equivalent ZIF counterpart
Stuffer Actuator (Plunger Style)
Many of our larger pitch ZIF-style FPC connectors use a stuffer-type actuator [See Below]. Stuffer actuators use a
slightly different method to secure an FPC cable into the connector than the flip-lock versions [For flip-lock versions,
see Fine Pitch FPC Connector Quick Reference Guide, document number 8-1773459-2].
Stuffer actuators are typically used in vertical applications for ease of use: however right angle versions are also available.
Step One:
Starting State
Step Two:
Slide Stuffer forward to open
Step Three:
Insert the FPC into the connector &
slide stuffer backward to close
Step Four:
The FPC is now securely mated with
the connector
Upper (Top) Contact vs Lower (Bottom) Contact
Many of our fine pitch FPC products are available in both Upper (top) or Lower (bottom) contact versions. This attribute
simply represents which portion of the contact the flexible printed circuit interacts with. As you can see from the image
below, the FPC contacts are formed in a “U” shape. Only one prong of that “U” shaped contact interfaces with the flexible
printed circuit contacts. Choosing the correct contact design is generally based on the orientation of the flexible printed
circuit as described below.
If the contacts of the
flexible printed circuit are
facing up (away from the
board) then the upper
contact version is required.

Lower(Bottom) Contact

Contact Point
If the contacts of the flexible
printed circuit are facing
down (towards the board)
then the lower contact
version is required.

Frequently asked questions
Question 1
Is there a pitch requirement for your interconnect need?
Answer 1
TE offers FPC products from 0.25mm to 1.25mm centerline spacing.
Question 2
Is your application in a high vibration environment?
Answer 2
ZIF version FPC interconnects have a greater retention force and are suitable for high vibration applications.
Question 3
Do you have a need for a higher number of mating cycles?
Answer 3
ZIF version FPC interconnects allow for a greater number of mating cycles via the use of an actuator.
Question 4
In your application, when the flex cable meets the board-mounted connectors, will the flex cable contact pads be face up or face down?
Answer 4
If face down, use bottom contact versions. If face up, use top contact versions.
