As electronic devices continue to evolve toward compact size and higher integration, connectors play a critical role in ensuring stable signal transmission within complex systems. Among various connection solutions, FFC/FPC connectors are widely used due to their flexibility, space-saving characteristics, and suitability for high-density circuit designs.

Kinghelm has developed a comprehensive range of antenna and connector products, supported by years of experience in RF and electronic interconnection technologies. The KH-CL0.5-H2.0-15PS FFC/FPC connector is designed to meet the requirements of compact electronic devices that demand fine pitch and reliable connectivity.

1. Structural Design and Key Features

The KH-CL0.5-H2.0-15PS connector features a 0.5mm pitch with 15 संपर्क points, making it suitable for applications requiring multiple signal channels within limited space. The fine pitch design helps increase connection density while maintaining an organized PCB layout.

This model adopts an SMD (Surface Mount Device) horizontal mounting structure, which supports automated assembly processes and contributes to efficient production. With a board height of 2mm, it fits well in slim electronic designs where vertical space is limited.

The connector uses a drawer-type locking mechanism combined with a top contact configuration. This structure allows straightforward insertion and removal, helping improve assembly efficiency. The top contact design also provides flexibility in routing FFC/FPC cables depending on device layout requirements.

2. Technical Specifications

The KH-CL0.5-H2.0-15PS connector is designed to deliver stable performance under standard operating conditions. Key specifications include:

• Number of Contacts: 15P

• Pitch: 0.5mm

• Mounting Type: SMD, horizontal (right-angle)

• Cable Thickness Compatibility: 0.3mm

• Profile Height: 2mm

• Operating Temperature Range: -25°C to +85°C

These specifications make it suitable for a wide range of consumer and industrial electronic applications where compact size and consistent connection are required.

3. Application Scenarios

Due to its compact structure and practical design, the KH-CL0.5-H2.0-15PS connector can be applied in multiple fields:

• Consumer Electronics
  Used in smartphones, tablets, and laptops for connections between mainboards and modules such as displays, cameras, and touch panels. The fine pitch design helps support complex signal routing.
