FH36 Seriesq0.3 mm Pitch, 1.0 mm above the board Flexible Printed Circuit ZIF Connectors
Precautions
As illustrated (Fig. 5) angle insertion may cause electrical discontinuity when the FPC is deflected in use.
Opening of the FPC pattern

• To avert insertion of the FPC at an angle, consideration should be given to securing enough insertion space
when designing the board lay-out. Insertion will be difficult when the FPC is too short.
• Contact FPC manufacturer for information about the bending specifications.
xVerification of the fully closed actuator
The FPC should be fully inserted, with its positioning tabs fully behind the protrusions on both sides of the con-
nector’s insertion slot (Fig. 6).

xDo not apply any pull or upward-directed force to the FPC.
Do not make any sharp bends of FPC close to the immediate exit from the connector (Fig. 7)
