0.5mm Pitch FPC/FFC/Membrane
FF14A Series 【Cable Lock Type】
OUTLINE
FF14A series is a 0.9mm height connector witha cable lock mechanism, in conformity to FPC
of 0.5mm pitch and 0.2mm thick.

Applicable cable is 0.2mm thick FPC, FFCand membrane.

APPLICATIONS
Tablet PC, Notebook PC, PDA, Digital Camera and other portable devices

FEATURE◆ FPC, FFC and membrane are mateable.
◆ With the upper and lower contacts design, all FPC insertion directions are availavle.
◆ DDK's original cam-type "Back-lock" system ensures reliable operation.
◆ DDK's cable lock mechanism provides positive retention of the FPC.
◆ Back-lock structure ensures retention from inadvertent from upward pulling of the FPC.
◆ Connectors deliver with the lock lever opened. Time saving for FPC inserting operation.
◆ Tape and reel package for automatic mounting machine.
◆ High temperature resistant resin for lead free reflow process.
◆ Nickel barrier prevents solder wicking.

Umit：mm○ Operating Instruction and Cautions

1．Connector mounting Instruction

Lock lever is opened when delivery.

Connectors are delivered with a lock lever opened.

You do not have to operate the lock lever before inserting FPC.
(picture ① )Please do not re-flow with the lock lever closed.
Please close the lock-lever with inserting FPC, otherwise
the contact gap become narrower and FPC insertion force will rise.
(picture ② )				

picture ①

Please do not load from the top of the lock lever. (figure ① )And please do not load toward the opposite direction of the locklever, (figure ② ) otherwise the lock lever may be broken or contacts
may be deformed.

2．FPC Insertion
Please insert FPC to the pattern side up.(picture ③ ) when using upper contacts.
Please insert FPC to the stiffener side up(picture ④ ) when using lower contacts.
Please insert FPC straight to the connector.
Due to the semi-reteining mechanism,
some insertion force is necessary when inserting FPC.
Please make sure whether FPC is inserted fully.
