Molex easy-On FFC/FPC FlexiSnap-15 connectors

By delivering a one-action FFC/FPC connector with one-touch cable insertion within a low 1.50mm height, easy-On FFC/FPC FlexiSnap-15 connectors simplify cable insertion, enhance locking reliability, support automation and save space. These connectors help customers overcome common assembly challenges - improving both efficiency and cost-effectiveness compared to traditional front/back-flip connectors.

Features

• Provides increased space savings and enables more compact and efficient layouts
  • The low-height design of the connectors with one-touch function reduces the vertical profile of the connector, minimizing the overall space it occupies on the PCB or inside the device. This simplifies and speeds up the mating process without requiring extra mechanical components
• Provides a lower-cost solution, and streamlines procurement and inventory management
  • The 0.50mm-pitch cables are standard, widely manufactured and simpler in design compared to the more complex fine-pitch 0.30mm zigzag-cable fingers
• Improves the assembly process, reduces labor time and complexity
  • The one-touch locking feature uses an innovative locking nail design that allows quick and easy single-step insertion of the FFC/FPC cable without the need to open and close actuators
• Enables seamless integration into automated assembly lines to improve consistency
  • The connectors have a large cable insertion mouth at the front, enabling easy and precise cable placement by automation robots that afford lower error rates and higher cost savings due to their increased efficiency and need for fewer reworks during production
• Provides secure mechanical cable retention without requiring additional locking operations
  • The locking nails provide a secure mechanical retention that ensures stable and reliable cable mating without requiring additional locking operations
