502078-2110 – MOLEX

The MOLEX 502078-2110 is a 21-position, bottom-contact, right-angle mounted FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) connector. It features a 0.25mm contact pitch, enabling high-density interconnect for compact electronic assemblies. The connector employs a bottom contact configuration, where the FPC is inserted from the top, making contact with the pads on the bottom surface of the FPC. The right-angle orientation facilitates horizontal FPC insertion relative to the PCB, optimizing space utilization and cable routing. The housing material is typically a high-temperature thermoplastic, suitable for reflow soldering processes. The contact material is generally a copper alloy, plated with gold or tin to ensure reliable electrical connection and corrosion resistance. The retention mechanism is a friction lock, providing secure FPC retention during operation. This connector is designed for applications requiring a low-profile, high-density interconnect solution for FPCs.
