1. INTRODUCTION

This specification covers the requirements for application of the AMP* 1mm FPC (flexible printed circuit)

horizontal and vertical connectors. These connectors are designed for surface mount technology (SMT) to

printed circuit (pc) boards and receive FPCs with zero insertion force (ZIF) action. The connectors have

contacts with centerline spacings of 1.00 [.0394] and are available in sizes 4 through 30 contact positions.

The horizontal connectors feature solder hold-downs that help to stabilize the connector before and after

soldering. The top entry horizontal connector is for FPCs with exposed traces facing upward and the bottom

entry is for FPCs with exposed traces facing downward. The connectors may be machine placed on pc

boards with robotic equipment.

When corresponding with personnel, use the terminology provided in this specification to facilitate your

inquiries for information. Basic terms and features of this product are provided in Figure 1.

and test information. Workmanship Specifications 101-21 and J-STD-001 provide solder joint requirements

and Test Specification 109-11 provides requirements and evaluation methods.

2.6. Instructional Material

Instruction Sheet 408-6927 provides recommendations for designing a pc board support fixture.

3. REQUIREMENTS

3.1. Storage

A. Ultraviolet Light

Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light may deteriorate the chemical composition used in the

connectors.

B. Shelf Life

The connectors should remain in the shipping containers until ready for use to prevent deformation to

the contacts. The connectors should be used on a first in, first out basis to avoid storage contamination

that could adversely affect them.

C. Chemical Exposure

Do not store connectors near any chemicals listed below, as they may cause stress corrosion cracking

in the connectors.

Alkalies Ammonia Citrates Phosphates Citrates Sulfur Compounds

Amines Carbonates Nitrites Sulfur Nitrites Tartrates
