FH67 Series/0.5mm Pitch, 3.57mm Width, One Action Lock, Vertical Connection FFC/FPC/Shield FFC Connector ●PCB Layout Precautions Stress leading to contact failure may be applied to the connector depending on the routing of the FPC the connector will be mated with. In order to prevent failure, please consider the following during mechanical design. ［Caution］ · When routing the FPC for use, make sure it has enough slack and do not pull tightly. Please check that the reinforcing film is placed vertical to the board surface. (Ex.25) · Please ensure there is no load applied to the connector in the pulling, inserting or lateral direction. Using an FPC bent close to the connector may cause contact failure or FPC damage/disconnection. Therefore, please take some measure to secure the FPC etc. (Ex.26) (Ex.27) · Do not place panels or mounted parts that interfere with the FPC. (Ex.28) · Please make adjustments with FPC manufacturer for FPC flexibility. · Please ensure the FPC has adequate insertion space when designing the layout so that it is not inserted diagonally. Additionally, insertion becomes difficult if the FPC is too short, so please ensure an adequate FPC length and component layout. · When you design the board/ layout, please secure required space for operation. （Ex.25） （Ex.26） Routing that Does Not Place a Load on the Reinforcing Film Routing that Places a Load on the Reinforcing Film Reinforcing Film Reinforcing Film （Ex.27） （Ex.28） Load Applied to FPC Housing/Mounted Components Interfering with FPC 18 Jul.1.2021 Copyright 2021 HIROSE ELECTRIC CO., LTD.

FH67 Series/0.5mm Pitch, 3.57mm Width, One Action Lock, Vertical Connection FFC/FPC/Shield FFC Connector Notes for Board Mounting and After Board Mounting ●Board Mounting Notes Please be careful of the following at the time of board mounting. ［Caution］ · Please confirm the recommended PCB mounting pattern, metal mask opening size and FPC design. · If the PCB mounting pattern is narrower than recommended or the metal mask opening is wider than recommended, solder (flux) wicking is more likely to occur. If there is difference from the recommendation, please use after checking the mounting state. · The level difference between the bottom surfaces of contact lead and the mold is designed to be minimal. When there is silk print etc. on the bottom surface of the connector, the lower surface of the connector may be pushed up, resulting in solder not applied or defective fillet formation. When there is silk print etc. on the bottom surface of the connector, please use after checking the mounted state. · Use the reflow conditions within the specifications designated by Hirose. The mounted status may vary due to external conditions such as the paste solder type, manufacturer, and board size. Please use it after checking the mounted state. · Please control the board warpage as much as possible. While the coplanarity of this connector is 0.1mm or less, defective soldering could occur if the board warpage is considerable. · When mounted on FPC, be sure to provide a reinforcing plate to ease handling. We recommend a reinforcing plate of 0.3mm or thicker made of glass epoxy material. · Do not apply excessive force (1N or more) when pulling out the emboss from the reel or suctioning the connector from the emboss. ●Cautions When Handling the Board After Mounting Please be careful of the following when handling the board after mounting operation. ［Caution］ · Refrain from handing that may put strain on the board during the assembly process, such as splitting a board into several pieces or screwing the board to a frame. Otherwise the connector may be damaged. · Board deflection should be 1mm or less when the board width is 100mm. (Ex.29) Board deflection may cause stress to the connector resulting in damage. （Ex.29） 100 Connector Connector PCB 100 ●Cautions for Manual Soldering Please be careful of the following when hand-soldering for repair work etc. ［Caution］ · Do not perform manual soldering with the FPC inserted in the connector. · Please be careful not to apply excessive heat or allow the solder iron to touch any place other than the connector contact lead. Failure to do so may result in connector deformation or melting. · Do not supply an excessive amount of solder (flux) . If too much solder (flux) is supplied to the contact, the solder or flux could adhere on the contact point and cause contact failure. Additionally, supplying excessive solder to the retention tabs may result in actuator rotation failure, causing connector damage. 19 Jul.1.2021 Copyright 2021 HIROSE ELECTRIC CO., LTD.
