TF70 Series/For Automotive, 0.5mm Pitch, Center Lock, FPC/FFC-to-Board Connector

Features
1. Narrow‌Pitch and Compact
Design〈 Mating dimensions：Right angle connection／50pos. 〉

This two-piece FPC/FFC-to-board connector, with a
0.5mm pitch for FPC/FFC and PCB patterns,
significantly reduces the size and weight of the end
product.

2. Direct‌
FPC/FFC connection
design streamlines assembly 		and reduces size and weight.

Assembly involves simply inserting the FPC/FFC into
the plug housing and securing with the retainer,
enhancing efficiency and reducing complexity.
This design eliminates traditional terminals, thereby
decreasing weight and conserving space by using
FPC/FFC instead of discrete wires.

Note 1 : When passing the current through all of the contacts, use 70% of the current rating.
Note 2 : Includes temperature rise caused by current flow.If the heat resistance of the FPC/FFC is less than 105℃ , the heat resistance of the FPC/FFC is applied.
Note 3 : The term “storage” refers to products stored for long period of time prior to mounting and use. 						Operating temperature range and Humidity range covers non-conducting condition of installed connectors in storage, shipment or during transportation.

Soldering time

Time (sec.)*Measurements are taken at the contact lead. Results may vary based on factors like solder paste type, 		manufacturer, PCB size, and other soldering materials.							Ensure all mounting conditions are determined before use.
*The provided temperature profile is recommended.

Cautions

1. Forcing the connector out might cause damage.							If challenging to remove, gently press down once and then release the lock.
2. Always disconnect the power before reseating the connector.
3. Avoid touching the terminal area when the power is active, as it's hazardous.
4. For harnessing guidelines, please consult a Hirose representative.

While Taking into Consideration

Specifications mentioned in this catalog are reference values.
When considering to order or use this product, please review the Drawing and Product Specifications sheets.
Use an appropriate cable when using the connector in combination with cables.
If considering usage of a non-specified cable, please contact your sales representative.
If assembly process is done by jigs & tools which are not identified by Hirose, the warranty of the product may be affected.
If considering usage for below mentioned applications, please contact your sales representative.
In cases where the application will demand a high level of reliability, such as automotive, medical instruments,
public infrastructure, aerospace/defense etc. Hirose must review before assurance of reliability can be given.
