I feel inspired to join the roller-skating limbo world championships. I just need to channel the Amphenol F13S and F14D Series FPC Connectors, because they take low profile and flexibility to all new levels. These connectors feature a right-angle zero insertion force flex mechanism with a front flip lock, surface mount termination, and bottom side contact. With a maximum operating voltage of up to 50V and a maximum current of 0.3A per contact, these connectors can be used for more than just data, and their operating temperature range being as low as -55°C and as high as +105°C means there are few environments where these connectors can’t go. Their ability to support up to 61 positions makes them excellent for complex data lines such as LCDs and camera sensors, while their small size makes them perfect for small designs, including wearables.
