What are the key features of ZF1-08-01-WT?
- 8-position ZIF FFC/FPC socket at 1.00 mm pitch enables damage-free cable insertion and removal with zero insertion force
- Gold-plated contacts and locking actuator mechanism maintain reliable electrical connection for 1.00 mm pitch flat flexible cables in SMT layouts
- Compact white SMT socket strip designed for high-cycle FFC cable connections in portable consumer electronics and sensor modules
What is ZF1-08-01-WT used for?
The ZF1-08-01-WT is used in portable consumer electronics, medical wearables, and IoT sensor boards where 8-position 1.00 mm pitch FFC cables require frequent connection and disconnection without contact wear. Its ZIF actuator design protects delicate flat flexible cables rated for 0.5A per contact, making it ideal for display ribbon cables, camera modules, and compact PCB-to-flex assemblies in space-constrained product designs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pitch and how many positions does the ZF1-08-01-WT ZIF connector support?
The ZF1-08-01-WT is an 8-position ZIF FFC/FPC socket with 1.00 mm pitch between contacts, enabling connection of standard 1.00 mm pitch flat flexible cables in portable electronics, sensor boards, and display cable assemblies requiring reliable low-force mating and repeated insertion cycles.
How does the zero insertion force mechanism of the ZF1-08-01-WT protect FFC cables during assembly and field service?
The ZF1-08-01-WT's ZIF actuator allows an 8-conductor 1.00 mm pitch FFC cable to be inserted with essentially 0 gf insertion force before the actuator is locked, preventing damage to delicate flat flexible cables rated at 0.5A per contact; this is critical in wearable devices and camera modules where repeated cable insertions must not degrade contact integrity.
In which product categories does the ZF1-08-01-WT provide a reliable FFC interface for display or sensor connections?
The ZF1-08-01-WT is suited for connecting 8-pin 1.00 mm pitch FFC ribbons in LCD display panels, CMOS camera modules, fingerprint sensors, and IoT wearable PCBs, where the ZIF socket's compact SMT footprint and gold-plated contacts deliver consistent signal quality across up to 30 mating cycles or more in production and field-service scenarios.
What should buyers consider when selecting the ZF1-08-01-WT versus a higher-position-count 1.00 mm FFC connector?
When the interface requires exactly 8 conductors at 1.00 mm pitch, the ZF1-08-01-WT minimizes board footprint compared to 10-position or 12-position alternatives; buyers should verify cable thickness compatibility (typically 0.3 mm FFC) and actuator type, then source from SAMTEC distributors where prototype quantities are typically available from stock with 1 to 3 day shipping.
