Frequently asked questions

Question 1:

What position sizes can TE Connectivity provide?

Answer 1:

We offer odd numbered position sizes only. Apart from the

position sizes listed in the product matrix, we will also be able

to provide 11P to 71P sizes in our 0.3mm pitch series and 11P

to 61P sizes in our 0.25mm pitch series found in this quick

reference guide.

Question 2:

What is the advantage of angled flexible printed circuit

insertion?

Answer 2:

Being able to insert and mate the flexible printed circuit into

the connector at an angle makes it possible to mount the FPC

connector anywhere on your PCB as there is much less

clearance needed in front of the connector during mating and

unmating.

Question 3:

What type of packaging is used for Fine Pitch FPC products?

Answer 3:

All items are sold in embossed tape and reel packaging. However,

packaging quantities may be different depending on the size and

position count of the product.

Question 4:

What is the minimum height of this product series?

Answer 4:

Among the items within this guide, 0.9mm is the lowest height.

Question 5:

What is the biggest differentiator of TE’s FPC connector series?

Answer 5:

According to our research, our FPC connectors offer the same

product function in one of the smallest form factors on the market.

Our product also offers a distinct click lock and a larger vacuum

pick-up area.
