High-density automotive connector features 0.3 mm pitch

April 28, 2025 By Redding Traiger Leave a Comment

Hirose Electric has launched one of the industry’s smallest back-flip FPC connectors for automotive and other harsh environment applications. With a low profile of 1.2 mm and a space-saving 0.3 mm pitch (0.6 mm mounting pitch), the FH79 Series offers a reduction in width of approximately 40% compared to standard 0.5 mm pitch connectors. The high-density connector utilizes a dual contact system (top and bottom contacts) and a staggered contact array design to maximize space efficiency and reduce the connector footprint.
Designed for harsh environment applications, including automotive, the FH79 Series is heat resistant up to 125℃. The back flip design provides high contact reliability, preventing actuator opening with upward FPC routing.
Supporting high-speed transmission eDP ver1.3 and MIPI D-PHY ver2.1 standards, the FH79 Series connectors are well suited to support the digitization of automotive, construction, and agricultural equipment.
The FH79 Series is commonly used in automotive entertainment, robotics/factory automation, LiDAR, and sensing cameras, ensuring stable, high-speed connectivity.
The FH79 Series FPC connector is currently available in a 61-position version, with 11, 21, 31, 41, and 51 positions under development.
