The **FCE-11-R** is a specific electronic component, typically associated with **Hirose Electric (HRS)**. It belongs to the category of interface connectors, specifically designed for high-speed data transmission and compact electronic assemblies. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications Below are the primary technical characteristics of the FCE series (specifically the 11-contact variants): | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Type** | Interface Connector / Receptacle | | **Number of Contacts** | 11 | | **Mounting Type** | Right Angle / Surface Mount (SMT) | | **Contact Plating** | Gold over Nickel | | **Rated Current** | 0.5A per contact | | **Rated Voltage** | 125V AC | | **Operating Temp** | -25°C to +85°C | --- ### 2. Key Electronic Features The "R" suffix usually denotes a specific packaging or orientation (often **Receptacle** or **RoHS compliant**). * **Shielding Capabilities:** These parts are engineered with metal shells to provide excellent EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) protection, which is critical for signal integrity in mobile devices. * **Durability:** Designed for a high number of mating cycles, making them suitable for external interfaces (charging ports or data ports). * **Compact Footprint:** The "Right Angle" orientation allows for a low profile on the PCB, saving vertical space inside the device housing. --- ### 3. Common Applications Due to its 11-pin configuration and high-speed capabilities, this part is often found in: 1. **Handheld Devices:** Older generation smartphones and PDAs. 2. **Digital Cameras:** Used for data transfer and video output. 3. **Medical Instrumentation:** Small-scale diagnostic tools requiring secure data connections. 4. **Industrial Controllers:** Compact interfaces for programming or sensor input. --- ### 4. Component Identification * **FCE:** The Series Name (Hirose interface series). * **11:** Represents the number of positions/pins. * **R:** Indicates the specific version (often **Receptacle** or **Right Angle**).
