The part number **10RS-6F-R0-R/C03** typically refers to a high-precision, low-profile **Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) connector**. These components are widely used in modern electronics to connect ribbon cables between PCBs and displays, keyboards, or camera modules. Below is a detailed breakdown of its characteristics and specifications. --- ### 1. Component Specifications The following table outlines the general technical parameters associated with this series of connectors: | Parameter | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Connector Type** | FPC/FFC (Flexible Printed Circuit) | | **Pitch** | 0.5mm or 1.0mm (Series dependent) | | **Pin Count** | 10 Positions/Pins | | **Orientation** | Right Angle (Horizontal) | | **Contact Type** | Top and/or Bottom contact | | **Actuator Style** | ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) / Flip-Lock | | **Current Rating** | 0.5A AC/DC | | **Voltage Rating** | 50V AC/DC | | **Mounting Type** | Surface Mount (SMT) | --- ### 2. Part Number Breakdown While manufacturer coding varies slightly (often associated with brands like JST, Hirose, or specialized SMT manufacturers), the string generally follows this logic: * **10**: Indicates the number of circuits/pins (10 pins). * **RS**: Often denotes the series name (e.g., Right-angle, SMT). * **6F**: Specifies the height or physical iteration (e.g., 1.2mm or 2.0mm profile). * **R0**: Refers to the contact orientation or specific plating. * **R/C03**: Packaging code, usually indicating "Tape and Reel" for automated pick-and-place assembly. --- ### 3. Key Features * **ZIF Mechanism:** Uses a locking lever (actuator) to secure the flexible cable without requiring force during insertion, preventing wear on the delicate cable contacts. * **Low Profile:** Designed for extremely thin devices (smartphones, wearables, and tablets) where vertical space is limited. * **Staggered Leads:** The SMT leads are often staggered to allow for easier soldering and better mechanical stability on the PCB. --- ### 4. Typical Applications 1. **Consumer Electronics:** Connecting LCD screens to motherboards in digital cameras or handheld consoles. 2. **Mobile Devices:** Internal connections for microphones, speakers, and button arrays. 3. **Industrial:** Compact sensor interfaces where vibration resistance and space-saving are critical. ---
