Amphenol CS FlexFast™ Flex-to-Board connectors
Amphenol CS announces FlexFast™ Flex-to-Board connector
The FlexFast™ Flex-to-Board connector is an innovative solution with right-angle SMT/SMD termination, compatible with both FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) and FFC (Flexible Flat Cable). Lightweight and space-saving, it serves a key role in battery pack applications such as battery packs used in EV and ESS, and in automotive applications such as connecting CCS to BMS and in powertrain internal connections. This connector ensures high assembly efficiency and easy operation by allowing direct flex insertion. Its design, offering a lower profile and reduced mating & unmating force, allows customization of pitch and pin counts up to 68 positions. Compliant with USCAR2 and LV214 , it also comes with CPA (Connector Position Assurance) and FPA (Flex Position Assurance). It supports 1A nominal current per contact and a compact, 1.80mm pitch is available in 40 single flex positions.
