What are the key features of ZF5S-34-03-T-WT?

  • 68-position ZIF FFC/FPC socket with 0.50 mm pitch enabling reliable connection to fine-pitch flexible flat cables without insertion force
  • Solder hold-down board mounting provides mechanical retention for robust strain relief in vibration-prone environments
  • Compact body (22.66 mm × 4.88 mm) with female contacts designed for high-cycle SMT flat cable interconnects in space-constrained designs

What is ZF5S-34-03-T-WT used for?

The ZF5S-34-03-T-WT is used in consumer electronics, portable medical devices, and industrial control panels where flexible flat cables (FFC) must be connected and disconnected repeatedly without damage. Its zero-insertion-force design protects 68 contacts during cable mating, reducing connector wear in high-cycle applications such as LCD panel interfaces, camera modules, and touchscreen assemblies. The 0.50 mm pitch supports high pin-count interconnects within tight PCB space budgets.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many positions and what pitch does the ZF5S-34-03-T-WT FFC connector provide?

The ZF5S-34-03-T-WT is a 68-position ZIF connector with a 0.50 mm pitch, accepting FFC or FPC cables of corresponding width. It provides zero insertion force mating to protect 68 individual contacts, making it well-suited for delicate flexible cables found in LCD, camera, and sensor module interconnects.

What board mounting method does the ZF5S-34-03-T-WT use and what body dimensions should I plan for in PCB layout?

The ZF5S-34-03-T-WT uses solder hold-down mounting, securing the connector body to the PCB via SMT solder tabs for mechanical strain relief. The body measures approximately 22.66 mm in length and 4.88 mm in depth, with a height of about 2.5 mm, which must be reserved in the PCB keepout zone for proper FFC cable entry and actuation clearance.

When would a designer choose ZF5S-34-03-T-WT over a lower pin-count FPC connector for a touchscreen or camera interface?

A designer would select the 68-position ZF5S-34-03-T-WT when the interface requires more than 50 signal and power lines in a single 0.50 mm pitch connector, such as parallel RGB touchscreen panels or multi-lane camera sensor outputs needing 68 simultaneous connections. Fewer connector slots and a single mating point reduce assembly time and minimize signal routing on flexible substrates compared to using two smaller connectors.
