FH19SC-45S-0.5SH(09) Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FH19SC-45S-0.5SH(09) is a 45-position FFC/FPC connector manufactured by Hirose Electric Co Ltd, designed for surface mount, right-angle applications with 0.5mm pitch contacts. This connector features bottom-contact configuration, flip-lock mechanism, and zero insertion force (ZIF) operation. The part is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing design support and procurement.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

FH33-45S-0.5SH(10) (Hirose Electric Co Ltd) is the primary substitute. This part maintains identical electrical specifications (50V, 0.5A) and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 85°C) as the original FH19SC-45S-0.5SH(09). The FH33 series is active and RoHS Compliant, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory compliance. The height above board increases from 0.95mm to 1.20mm, which must be verified against PCB layout constraints.

FFC2B35-45-G (GCT) is an alternative substitute from a different manufacturer. This part meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters with identical pitch, position count, and voltage rating. However, the current rating is 0.4A (versus 0.5A), the operating temperature minimum is -25°C (versus -55°C), and the height above board is 0.079" (2.00mm). This part is suitable only for applications where the reduced current rating and narrower temperature range are acceptable. The FFC2B35-45-G offers higher mating cycle rating (30 versus 20).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FH33-45S-0.5SH(10) be used as a direct replacement for FH19SC-45S-0.5SH(09)?

A: Yes, the FH33-45S-0.5SH(10) meets all critical substitution parameters: 45 positions, 0.5mm pitch, surface mount right-angle configuration, bottom contacts, 50V voltage rating, 0.5A current rating, and UL94 V-0 flammability rating. The primary design consideration is the increased height above board (1.20mm versus 0.95mm), which must be verified against PCB clearance requirements.

Q: What are the key differences between FH33-45S-0.5SH(10) and FFC2B35-45-G?

A: Both parts share identical position count, pitch, mounting type, and voltage rating. The FFC2B35-45-G has a lower current rating (0.4A versus 0.5A), narrower operating temperature range (-25°C to 85°C versus -55°C to 85°C), and greater height above board (2.00mm versus 1.20mm). The FFC2B35-45-G provides higher mating cycle rating (30 versus 20).

Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?

A: FH33-45S-0.5SH(10) is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. FFC2B35-45-G is also supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. Both are suitable for automated assembly processes.

Q: What is the impact of height above board differences?

A: The FH19SC-45S-0.5SH(09) has a height of 0.95mm, FH33-45S-0.5SH(10) is 1.20mm, and FFC2B35-45-G is 2.00mm. These differences affect PCB layout, component spacing, and enclosure clearance. Verify that the substitute part's height does not violate design constraints before implementation.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new designs?

A: FH33-45S-0.5SH(10) is recommended for new designs due to active product status, full parameter compatibility with the original part, and RoHS compliance. FFC2B35-45-G is suitable only when the reduced current rating and operating temperature range are acceptable for the application.
