FH12-18S-0.5SH(55) Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Hirose FH12-18S-0.5SH(55) is an 18 position FFC/FPC connector from the FH12 series, featuring a 0.5mm pitch and bottom contact design. It is surface mounted with a right angle orientation, making it suitable for compact, space-constrained PCB layouts. The connector uses a flip lock actuator for secure cable retention and requires a board height of only 2.00mm.

 

Electrical ratings include a current rating of 0.4A DC and a voltage rating of 50V AC. The operating temperature range is -40°C to +70°C, with a storage temperature range of -10°C to +50°C. The housing is made of UL94 V-0 rated polyamide (nylon), and the actuator is polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). Contacts are phosphor bronze with gold plating.

 

This connector is designed for use with FFC or FPC cables having a thickness of 0.3mm ±0.05mm. It features a zero insertion force (ZIF) mechanism, simplifying assembly and reducing wear on the cable. Typical applications include interconnecting main circuit boards with LCDs, HDDs, and other peripherals in compact electronic devices.
