Frequently Asked Questions
How many positions and what pitch does the ZF5S-30-02-T-WT FPC connector provide?
The ZF5S-30-02-T-WT offers 30 positions arranged in a dual-row layout with a 0.50 mm contact pitch. This combination delivers a high pin density suitable for display, camera, or sensor flex cable interfaces where routing 30 signals in a body length of approximately 0.813 inches is required on compact PCBs.
In what types of portable or industrial assemblies is the ZF5S-30-02-T-WT a strong connector choice?
This FPC socket is commonly chosen for camera modules, LCD display ribbon connections, and industrial HMI panels that use 30-pin flat flexible cables. Its solder hold-down mounting adds mechanical robustness in applications exposed to vibration, while the 0.50 mm pitch keeps the PCB footprint under 1 inch in body length, enabling compact board layouts.
What is the lead time for the ZF5S-30-02-T-WT and how should procurement teams plan for it?
Samtec lists a factory lead time of approximately 1 week for the ZF5S-30-02-T-WT, which is very short compared to many specialty connectors that require 12 to 26 weeks. Procurement teams can typically order just-in-time with low safety stock, although building a buffer of 2 to 4 weeks of usage is advisable for high-volume production runs to cover demand spikes.
