Molex’s 0.30 mm pitch narrow-depth FPC connector provides an optimal combination of space savings, contact retention assurance, and ease-of-use for tight-packaging applications. The 0.3 mm pitch FPC connectors incorporate some of the proven features of other Molex FPC connectors such as a robust easy-on actuator for stable mating functionality and reliable contact retention. The 0.30 mm pitch FPC series also includes new or improved design features such as a housing design that highlights the FPC tabs more to help assure proper cable seating, wider gap for easier cable insertion, and a longer area to hold onto the actuator to make assembly easier and quicker for operators.
