FH12A-40S-0.5SH(55) Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Hirose FH12A-40S-0.5SH(55) is a 40-position, 0.5mm pitch FFC/FPC connector designed for compact electronic assemblies. It features a top contact configuration with a zero insertion force (ZIF) flip lock actuator, ensuring reliable cable retention and easy insertion. The connector is surface mounted with a right angle orientation, making it suitable for space-constrained boards.

 

The contacts are made of phosphor bronze with a gold finish, providing good conductivity and corrosion resistance. The housing is constructed from polyamide (PA) nylon, and the actuator is made of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), both UL94 V-0 rated for flammability. The connector is rated for 50V operating voltage and can operate over a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C. It accepts FFC/FPC cables with a thickness of 0.30mm and has a board height of 2.00mm.

 

This connector is ideal for internal wire-to-board connections in consumer electronics, automotive systems, and industrial equipment where space and reliability are critical. The RoHS3 and REACH compliance make it suitable for global markets, though compliance status is unverified.
