Panasonic Industrial Devices CF1 Board-to-FPC Automotive Connectors

Panasonic Industrial Devices CF1 Board-to-FPC Automotive Connectors are a simple, lightweight solution for easy FPC and board connections without needing a relay wiring harness. Designed for harsh automotive applications, these lightweight connectors offer high shock, high vibration, and high +125°C heat resistance. The CF1 connectors feature a 2A-rated current per pin contact with a 50VDC rated voltage and a double-sided clip contact structure that preserves contact reliability. Applications include battery management system wiring, instrument panels, headlamps, and more.

Features

  • Suitable for automotive applications that require vibration and heat resistance (+125°C) characteristics
