What are the key features of ZF1-08-02-WT?
- 8-position ZIF (zero insertion force) FFC/FPC socket at 1.00 mm pitch eliminates insertion damage to delicate flat cables
- Locking actuator mechanism secures the flat flexible cable without applying stress to individual conductors during engagement
- Compact SMT footprint at 1.00 mm pitch supports high-density flex cable routing in portable and wearable electronics
What is ZF1-08-02-WT used for?
The ZF1-08-02-WT is ideal for connecting flat flexible cables (FFC) and flexible printed circuits (FPC) in portable consumer electronics, medical wearables, and compact camera modules where repeated low-force engagement at 1.00 mm pitch is required. Its ZIF actuator design is particularly well-suited for applications involving frequent cable connection and disconnection during manufacturing test, calibration, or field service of thin-profile assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cable pitch and position count does the ZF1-08-02-WT support, and what cable types are compatible?
The ZF1-08-02-WT accepts 8-position flat flexible cables (FFC) or flexible printed circuits (FPC) with a 1.00 mm conductor pitch. The ZIF actuator allows repeated insertion and removal without applying pin force, making it compatible with standard 1.00 mm pitch FFC/FPC ribbons used in cameras, displays, and sensor modules.
How does the zero insertion force mechanism in the ZF1-08-02-WT protect flexible cable conductors during assembly?
The ZIF actuator on the ZF1-08-02-WT opens the contact beam before cable insertion so that no lateral force is applied across the 8 conductors at 1.00 mm pitch during seating. Closing the actuator then clamps all contacts simultaneously, eliminating the fretting and deformation risk that push-in connectors impose on thin FPC traces.
For which end-product categories is the SAMTEC ZF1-08-02-WT most commonly specified by procurement teams?
Purchasing teams for consumer electronics OEMs, medical device manufacturers, and industrial sensor companies frequently source the ZF1-08-02-WT for 8-position, 1.00 mm pitch FFC connections in smartphone accessories, glucose monitor PCBs, and compact industrial camera modules. Its low-profile SMT form factor suits automated reflow assembly in high-volume manufacturing.
